LDAP Authentication

With this login type an LDAP server will be used for authentication. The list of URLs represents a connection to the same replicated LDAP environment on different servers. The list will be checked top down if a server is not accessible, e.g. due to updates.

LDAP servers will searched in the DNS of the current domain using the keys _ldap._tcp.<domain> and _ldaps._tcp.<domain> if the list is left empty.

Sample login URLs look like: ldap://MyLdapServer:389/ or ldaps://MyLdapServer:636/ (with SSL).

Default Domain

If username does not contain a domain name then this Windows domain name will be added to the beginning of the username followed by a backslash (Windows domain name\username). It is not necessary for the user to provide the Windows domain name any more during authentication.

  • Default value: empty
