with an LDAP user name: Jane Dough Password: Test
To do this you would select LDAP from the Service Type pull-down list and enter the domain name and
domain type in the Domain Name field—notated with your values in place of the italicized text in the
example:
dc=myuniversity,dc=com.
If you entered the above values then a secure bind would be performed as follows:
LDAP://dc=myuniversity,dc=com
with username Mike and password Test.
So in this case the variable domain is used as the bind statement.
EXAMPLE 2: Another case may be a bind with a domain controller, such as:
mycompany.internal
In this case you would enter: Domain Name: mycompany.internal and the resulting bind would be
LDAP://mycompany.internal.
When there is not a domain but a server:
In many true LDAP installations there is not a domain but a server, so the LDAP Domain name would
simply be "SERVERNAME" where SERVERNAME is the name of the server LDAP is running on. This is
sometimes referred to as the host.
Then the LDAPDNBase would be configured to point to the users. This is sometimes referred to as the
base.
For example:
•
Say you have a user with the DN of: cn=Jane Dough,ou=People,dc=myuniversity,dc=com
•
and LDAP is running on a server named MYUMAIN.
You will configure the system as follows:
•
Use Directory Service Authentication—Check this box
•
Service Type—LDAP
•
AuthenticationType—Secure
•
Domain Name—[myuniversity.com]
•
Port Number—389
•
BaseDN—ou=People,dc=myuniversity,dc=com
Login Bypass
Overview of Login Bypass
Login By-Pass allows for the site home/login page to be bypassed if the referring system passes the
authentication information. When a user registers as an account member, the system will match the
account name that the user has entered with the closest name on the account list and apply user group
rights, cost center, and associated account status for the specified account.
