Add/Edit LDAP Server

Use the Add LDAP Server dialog box to define information about the LDAP service you want to add to the LDAP Provider's list or use the Edit LDAP Server dialog box to change information about an already defined LDAP service.

Name
Enter a descriptive name for the LDAP service (for example, BigFoot). This is the name that will be displayed in the GroupWise^® WebAccess Address Book.

Server
Enter the IP address or DNS hostname of the LDAP server (for example, ldap.bigfoot.com).

Port
Enter the port number that the LDAP server uses. The default is 389.

Maximum Results
Enter the maximum number of search results you want the LDAP server to return. The default is 100.

Timeout
Enter the amount of time (in seconds) to wait for responses from the LDAP server. The default is 30 seconds.

Search Base
Enter the base or root of the LDAP directory in which to search for names. For example, the base could be a country, organization, or other type of grouping.

Image URL
Some LDAP services require that you display their service logo when accessing their LDAP server. In the GroupWise WebAccess Address Book, this is done for all predefined LDAP services. By default, these images are located in the com/novell/webaccess/images directory under the Web server's document root directory.

If the LDAP service you are defining has these requirements, enter the URL for the service's image file.

Web URL
As with the image, some services require that you provide the URL for their Web site when accessing their LDAP server. In the GroupWise WebAccess Address Book, this is done for all predefined LDAP services.

If the LDAP service you are defining has these requirements, enter the URL for the service's Web site.

Username
Enter the username required to access the LDAP service.

Password
Enter the username's password.
