The LDAP source page lets you specify the information required to create a connection to the LDAP directory.
Address
Specify the IP address or DNS hostname of the server where the LDAP directory resides.
Username
Specify the username for a user that has read-only access to the directory. The user can have more than read-only access, but read-only access is all that is required and recommended.
For Novell eDirectory access, use standard LDAP notation. For example:
cn=admin_read_only,ou=users,o=mycompany
For Microsoft Active Directory, use standard domain notation. For example:
AdminReadOnly@mycompany.com
Password
Specify the password for the user you specified in the field.
