IMPORTANT:

AD servers are not case sensitive for user names so changing this tag to

“true” for AD authentication is not recommended.

The login-handler.xml file contains two sets of tags: one

for Active Directory and one for LDAP. Make sure you change the value of the
tags that are children of the tag.

9.

Provide the Active Directory search base in which you want the management server to look up

AD/LDAP user attributes. Allow no spaces between commas and put in all components of fully

qualified domain name, for example, hds.usa.com would be DC=hds,DC=usa,DC=com.
The search base is used to specify the starting point for the search. It points to a distinguished

name of an entry in the directory hierarchy.

dc=MyCompanyName,dc=COM

10.

Save the login-handler.xml file with your changes.
The following is an example of a modified login-handler.xml file for use with AD server

authentication. Underlined text is information that was modified:
