entire directory. The role of the bind DN is to query the directory using the LDAP
query filter (as specified under the Advanced tab) and search base for the DN for
authenticating users. When the DN is returned, the DN and password are used to
authenticate the user.

access locations that more likely hold a requested object.
LDAP Security Settings
Under the LDAP Security tab, you can upload and install the SSL required certificates and NTP
client key. If your LDAP server requires secure communications with its "clients" (i.e. the use of
SSL), the Server Certificate, the Client Certificate, and the Client Key must be uploaded to
SecureSync here.
You may upload a server certificate, a client certificate, or a client key.
For each:
a.
If necessary, create the desired certificate or client key. See "NTP Autokey: IFF Autokey
Support" on page112 for information on client keys.
b.
Click the INFO icon for the certificate you wish to upload.
c.
In the Certificate window, click the Choose File button.
