IBM has recently identified a security flaw in the Sametime Community Server that has led to them recommending you use SSL to secure your environment. See the following technote—http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21569452. It is important to note that you should always use LDAP credentials that have minimal (read) access to your directory and are not used anywhere else.
