Configure Authentication for LDAP

Refer to your LDAP server documentation for all of the information that needs to be entered into the
Machine’s LDAP dialog to set up communications with the LDAP server. At the minimum the Machine will
need a login account and password.

The path to the LDAP dialog is as follows:

At Your Workstation:

1. If not already running, open your Web browser and enter the TCP/IP address of the machine in the

Address or Location field. Press Enter.

2. If not already displayed, click the Properties tab.

3. Select

the

Remote Authentication Server / Directory Service

folder in the list of hot links.

4. Select

LDAP Server / Directory Service

.

5. Enter

the

Primary Server IP address (or host name)

in the box supplied.

6. Leave

the

Primary Server Port Number

at its LDAP default of 389.

7. Decide whether or not to use encryption (Authentication with SSL) when accessing the LDAP

server.

8. For

Authentication Method

, choose either Direct Authentication or Authentication of User Attributes.

Direct Authentication sets authentication with the LDAP server with the user name and password
entered by the user.

9. In

the

Search Login Name

box, enter the machine’s login name for accessing the LDAP server.

10. In the Search Password and Re-enter Search Password boxes, enter the machine’s password for

accessing the LDAP server.

11. In the Referral box, use the selection arrow to decide whether or not to return a referral to another

server if the distinguished name being searched is not in the initial directory's tree.

12. In the Referral Hop Limit box, enter the maximum number of referrals to follow in a row.

13. For Server Application, Microsoft Active Directory, Novell NetWare, IBM Lotus Domino, or Other

Applications.

14. Enter other appropriate configuration information into the boxes supplied. Note that the default

setting for Directory Service for Address Book is Use, which allows LDAP to be used with machine
options that can benefit from LDAP address lookups (such as E-mail).

15. Click Apply, and supply the Administrator User name and password if prompted.
