20. If installing an exacqVision server, license the exacqVision server as an Enterprise system. To do this, complete the following
steps:
A. Install the exacqVision Client software on the server if it is not already installed.
B. Run the exacqVision Client and connect to the local server (127.0.0.1) using the default “admin” account.
C. Open the System Setup page for the exacqVision server you want to license and select the System tab.
D. Enter the valid Enterprise license as generated by exacq Technologies and click Apply in the License section.
21. If installing an exacqVision server, configure the directory settings. To do this, complete the following steps:
A. In the exacqVision Client software, select the ActiveDirectory/LDAP tab on the System Setup page.
B. Select the Enable Directory Service checkbox
C. Select OpenLDAP/Kerberos in the LDAP Schema drop-down list.
D. Enter the OpenLDAP/Kerberos server’s IP address in the Hostname/IP Address field.
E. Select the SSL checkbox if you want LDAP operations to use secure SSL. If so, see the Configuring SSL on an
exacqVision Server document.
NOTE: On Ubuntu Linux systems purchased from Exacq before April 2010, you must use Synaptic Package Manager
to download packages that are required for SSL support. To do this, the exacqVision Server must be able to
connect to the Internet.
F. Verify the OpenLDAP/Kerberos server’s connection port. Unless you have reconfigured your OpenLDAP/Kerberos
server, the port should be 636 when using SSL, or 389 without SSL.
G. Enter the LDAP Base DN, the container of all directory user accounts or groups that you want to map in the
exacqVision software. For example, if the domain were exacq.test.com, the LDAP Base DN might be:
CN=Users, DC=exacq, DC=test, DC=com
NOTE: Check with the system administrator for the correct LDAP Base DN for your situation.
H. Enter the LDAP Binding DN, the fully qualified distinguished name (DN) of a directory user who has access to view
the records of the directory user accounts. It is recommended that you enter the Administrator user account as
the LDAP Binding DN. For example, if the domain were exacq.test.com, the LDAP Binding DN of the Administrator
account would be:
CN=Administrator, CN=Users, DC=exacq, DC=test, DC=com
I. Enter the password for the account entered in the previous step.
J. To prevent any non-directory users that have previously been created from connecting to the exacqVision server
(optional), deselect Enable Local User Accounts.
K. Click Apply to connect. An indicator on the ActiveDirectory/LDAP tab displays the success or failure of the
connection attempt.
