OpenLDAP Server Configuration
This page allows you to configure global settings for your OpenLDAP server,
such as the root DN for the database, administration login, cache sizes
and SSL certificates. The most commonly changed fields are :
- Root DN for LDAP database
- This field is for entering the DN (distinguished name) under which all
objects in your LDAP database must be stored. Typically it should be changed
to something matching your company or organization's name, like
dc=yourcompany,dc=com. But you are free to enter anything as long
as it is correctly formatted.
- Administration login DN
- This is effectively the root user for your LDAP database. It should
be a DN under your root set in the above field, like
cn=Manager,dc=yourcompany,dc=com.
- Administration password
- This field shows the current password (possibly encrypted), and an option
to enter a new one. If you change the password, the module will use it
automatically when connecting to the database to make changes.
Any changes made on this page will not take effect until the Apply
Configuration button is clicked on the module's main page.
If you want your LDAP server to accept TLS encrypted connections, you must first
generate an SSL certificate and public key. This can be mostly automated by
clicking the Generate SSL Certificate button at the bottom of the page.
