LDAP Client Configuration

LDAP Client Configuration

Postby cinglez » Thu Jan 15, 2009 5:59 pm

Hello All. I am new to this, so sorry if it's too easy...

I just cannot make a simple connection from Mozilla Thunderbird to the LDAP server (AMS) to search email addresses. What should I put on the fields "Base DN" and "Bind DN"? Port is 1389 (default on server). The Name field is free?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

From what I know of Mozilla, it doesn't support password protected LDAP servers. So basically in AMS you will need to remove the password requirement of the LDAP server (of course this has security implications). Then make sure you set your LDAP database as the default database in AMS. The final step is to set a base dn of...

dc=

That basically should get it downloading address books entries.
