Understanding '.configure --help' options

I'm trying to figure out if the openldap software installed on one of my boxes (downloaded from openldap.org and installed via ./configure, make, make install) is able to use SSL.

I can see that 'configure' wasn't originally run with anything to enable TLS.

When I run configure --help, I see that TLS functionality is listed as [auto], as opposed to [yes] or [no] for a default value.

Can anyone tell me what [auto] means?

Thanks.
