Different schemas can be used for user and group information with OpenLDAP. The instructions
and example that follow describe configuration of the system using Posix users and groups.
Configuring Connection Parameters
1. To configure connection parameters, issue the setauthparam ldap-server
<IP_address> command, where <IP_address> is the OpenLDAP server’s IP address.
2. Issue the setauthparam ldap-ssl 1 command.
Example:
system1 cli% setauthparam -f ldap-server 192.168.10.13
system1 cli% setauthparam -f ldap-ssl 1
In the example above:
• The OpenLDAP server’s IP address is 192.168.10.13.
• SSL security is activated using the 1 parameter.
Configuring Binding Parameters
After you have configured the connection parameters to your LDAP server, you must configure the
binding (authentication) parameters for users.
To configure binding parameters:
1. Issue the setauthparam binding <binding_type> command.
2. Issue the setauthparam user-dn-base <value> command, where <value> is the
base of the subtree where user information is kept in the OpenLDAP server directory information
tree.
