Connection Error in 1.01 with non-Standard LDAP ports

Novell Cool Solutions: Question & Answer

Q:
It seems that using non-Standard LDAP ports does not work with iFolder 1.01 running on Microsoft Windows 2000 Server. Trying to login with the iFolder Client I get a "Connection Error".



A:
This has been fixed with iFolder 2.0, but if you're using 1.01 or 1.02, here's how to fix it:

Changed the port on which NLDAP is listening to 399 with ConsoleOne. Used ldapsearch to verify that NLDAP is listening on port 399:

ldapsearch -h  -p 399 -b  "cn=" 

Changed \\HKLM\System\ControlSet1\Service\W3SVR\iFolderServer\LdapPort or \\HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Service\W32SVR\iFolderServer\LdapPort to 399 with REGEDIT.EXE
