LDAPUserManager - Configure: Configure the LDAPUserManager
Description
This view is used to change the basic settings of a
LDAPUserManager.
Controls
-
Title
- The (optional) title for this adapter
-
LDAP Server
- Specify the server name or IP address, optionally
followed by a colon and a port number. If no port number is given
a default of 389, which is the standard port LDAP servers listen
on, will be assumed. The server name must not contain any prefixes
like "ldap://".
The LDAPUserManager does not support secure LDAP connections via SSL.
-
Search base DN for users
- The DN for the branch of your LDAP
database that contains user records.
-
User Search Scope
- Choose the depth for all searches from the
user search base dn
-
LDAP user attributes
- These are the attributes looked for on the
LDAP user record returned by the LDAP server. The default is cn
(Canonical Name) and sn (surname). These attributes are always
guaranteed to be available if you base your user records on any of
the "person"-related object classes.
You can add any valid attribute to this comma-separated list with
the effect of your new attribute showing up on the list of attributes
to search on (see the "Search" management tab) and they will show
on the forms used to create a new user record or to edit an existing
entry.
-
LDAP user object class
- The objectClass of your user records
as defined in your LDAP schema. This is important so that new user
objects created in the LDAPUserManager are of the right type.
-
Search base DN for groups
- The DN for the branch of your LDAP
database that contains group records. These group records must be of
the LDAP class "groupOfUniqueNames" and the entry CN attribute
constitutes the group name.
Groups embody Zope roles. A user which is part of a "Manager" group
will have the "Manager" role after authenticating through the
LDAPLoginAdapter.
-
Group Search Scope
- Choose the depth for all searches from the
group search base dn
-
LDAP bind UID and password
- These needed for changing or adding
records on the LDAP Server.
