Mac Open Directory: uid=diradmin,CN=users,DC=domain,DC=com

Windows Active Directory (in organizational unit):ĬN=administrator,OU=OrgUnit,DC=domain,DC=com Windows Active Directory: CN=Administrator,CN=Users,DC=domain,DC=com

The exact format of the DN depends on the LDAP server. An example of the DN of the Administrator user on a Windows AD domain "", would be CN=Administrator,CN=Users,DC=domain,DC=com. This is typically an administrative user, although it can be a user that only has read-only access to the LDAP server. Some examples:ĭC=myschool,DC=edu,DC=au DC=myorganization,DC=com OU=OrgUnit,DC=domain,DC=com DC=localĪdmin DN-The DN of the user who has permission to connect to and query the LDAP server. Some older Novell eDirectory installations require a blank Base DN to operate. The format of the Base DN can differ significantly depending on configuration. For example, if the domain hosted by the LDAP server is "", then the Base DN might be DC=domain,DC=com. This is the equivalent of the "suffix" config setting of the OpenLDAP server. The LDAP server requires SSL support to be enabled and should accept connections on the standard LDAPS port 636.īase DN-The Base DN of the LDAP server. Your web server then creates two cryptographic keys - a Private Key and a Public Key.-Indicates if an encrypted SSL connection is used to connect to the LDAP server. When you choose to activate SSL on your web server you will be prompted to complete a number of questions about the identity of your website and your company. To be able to create an SSL connection a web server requires an SSL certificate. The protocol uses a third party, a Certificate Authority (CA), to identify one end or both end of the transactions. This link ensures that all data passed between the web server and browsers remain private and integral. Use SSL Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) is the standard security technology for establishing an encrypted link between a web server and a browser. LDAP Server Address-The hostname or IP address of the LDAP server. For more information, see Advanced LDAP configuration. However, it is easy to support other server types by adjusting the LDAP fields PaperCut NG/MF searches. PaperCut NG/MF supports the following server types: LDAP Server Type-Determines which LDAP fields are used to get user and group information. In the Sync Source area, in Primary sync source, select LDAP.Ĭomplete the following fields as required: When enabling LDAP, a number of configuration settings must be specified to allow the application to connect to the LDAP server. LDAP can either be enabled at installation time, or by changing the user source option after installation. PaperCut NG/MF can use an LDAP directory for user authentication and as a source of user and group information.

The eDirectory software is part of the Novell Compliance Management Platform. (It is worth noting that both Active Directory and Novell eDirectory Also called Netware Directory Services, Novell eDirectory is directory service software that is used to centrally managing access to resources on multiple servers and computers within a network. But when there is a mix of Windows, Apple and Linux machines then LDAP can provided the single source of user, group and authentication information. When a network consists of only Windows computers, then you can use an Active Directory domain. One of the most common uses of LDAP is to provide single sign-on on a network that comprises multiple platforms and applications. (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol) directories usually store information about user and groups in an organization. The LDAP directory service is based on a client-server model. It provides a mechanism used to connect to, search, and modify Internet directories. LDAP The Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) is a directory service protocol that runs on a layer above the TCP/IP stack. Synchronize user and group details with LDAP Available in PaperCut NG and PaperCut MF.
