Where would the proxy sit?

You still need to encrypt traffic somehow.

If you could put the proxy on the client app machine, the proxy could have a TLS/SASL link to your main LDAP box. But again, another SPOF, and more load on that box.

    oh! I understand where you're coming from now! No, I'm trying to capture the LDAP query/response between the 3rd party application and the LDAP server.

    Basically, I'll read from the app, send to the ldap server (log the query to a file), read the response from the ldap server, send to the app (log the response to a file).
