asked on

active directory domain service

Hello, I need some help and a detailed explanation please.
I'm running a domain with active directory and domain controller off the same windows 2008 server.
Every day I get the following warning.

******************
During the previous 24 hour period, some clients attempted to perform LDAP binds that were either:
(1) A SASL (Negotiate, Kerberos, NTLM, or Digest) LDAP bind that did not request signing (integrity validation), or
(2) A LDAP simple bind that was performed on a cleartext (non-SSL/TLS-encrypted) connection
 
This directory server is not currently configured to reject such binds.  The security of this directory server can be significantly enhanced by configuring the server to reject such binds.  For more details and information on how to make this configuration change to the server, please see http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=87923.
 
Summary information on the number of these binds received within the past 24 hours is below.
 
You can enable additional logging to log an event each time a client makes such a bind, including information on which client made the bind.  To do so, please raise the setting for the "LDAP Interface Events" event logging category to level 2 or higher.
 
Number of simple binds performed without SSL/TLS: 332
Number of Negotiate/Kerberos/NTLM/Digest binds performed without signing: 0
********************

I've looked online for an explanation and a fix but I'm having trouble understanding the solutions. Can someone please explain to me what this means and how to fix it.
Please & thank you
