Configuring an LDAP Server

From the list of available LDAP servers, click the Edit icon. The Server Configuration, LDAP Query Panel, and Add LDAP Mappings sections expand for you to edit.

NOTE: The Server Configuration section that expands upon clicking the Edit icon is the same section you configured when adding a new LDAP server, as described in Adding an LDAP Server .

Topics:

•	LDAP Query Panel

•	Add LDAP Mappings

LDAP Query Panel

NOTE: If you selected the Auto-fill LDAP Query fields when saving configuration option in the Server Configuration section, the LDAP Query Panel fills automatically with default values.

Specify the following values to successfully allow users to login to their Junk Box:

•	Directory Node to Begin Search—Specify a full LDAP directory path that points towards a node containing the information for all groups in the directory.

•	Filter—Specify an LDAP filter to easily find and identify users and mailing lists on the server. In this example,

(&(|(objectClass=group)(objectClass=person)(objectClass=publicFolder))(mail=*))

•	User Login Name Attribute—Specify the text attribute the user will use as their ‘login name.’ The generally accepted attribute for this field is sAMAccountName.

NOTE: This field works in sync with the Filter field, and needs to agree in both fields if changed.

•	Email Alias Attribute—Specify the email address, EmployeeID, PhoneNumber, or other alias attributes that link a single user to his or her junk box. The single generally accepted attribute for this field is proxyAddresses.

NOTE: Any other attributes must be separated by a comma. In this example, proxyAddresses,legacyExchangeDN.
