    /**
     * Class configuration array.
     *
     * - hostspec:       The LDAP host to connect to (may be an array of
     *                   several hosts to try).
     * - port:           The server port.
     * - version:        LDAP version (defaults to 3).
     * - tls:            When set, ldap_start_tls() is run after connecting.
     * - binddn:         The DN to bind as when searching.
     * - bindpw:         Password to use when searching LDAP.
     * - basedn:         LDAP base.
     * - options:        Hash of LDAP options to set.
     * - filter:         Default search filter.
     * - scope:          Default search scope.
     * - user:           Configuration parameters for {@link findUserDN()},
     *                   must contain 'uid', and may contain 'basedn'
     *                   entries.
     * - timeout:        Connection timeout in seconds (defaults to 5).
     * - auto_reconnect: If true, the class will automatically
     *                   attempt to reconnect to the LDAP server in certain
     *                   failure conditions when attempting a search, or other
     *                   LDAP operations.  Defaults to false.  Note that if you
     *                   set this to true, calls to search() may block
     *                   indefinitely if there is a catastrophic server failure.
     * - min_backoff:    Minimum reconnection delay period (in seconds).
     * - current_backof: Initial reconnection delay period (in seconds).
     * - max_backoff:    Maximum reconnection delay period (in seconds).
     * - cache:          A Horde_Cache instance for caching schema requests.
