Added instructions on how to secure the connection between the keystone host and LDAP server. This patch also includes some edits to the instructions for setting up Assignments, among them is splitting it off to a different XML file (for easier management).

<para>The Identity service supports the use of TLS to encrypt LDAP

traffic. Before configuring this, you must first verify where your

certificate authority file is located. For more information, see
