Setup and configuration

The AuthenticationService manages all LDAP authentication requests. The types of authentication a station supports, in this case LDAP, are determined solely by this service. The most important element in LDAP authentication is the LDAP authentication scheme. A station supports multiple schemes, with each user account tied to a specific scheme.

Use this checklist to guide the setup and configuration process:

  • All prerequisites fulfilled.

  • LDAP authentication scheme selected and properties configured.

  • User prototypes set up. See.

  • Local super user and service users set up.

  • If you are using the KerberosScheme, PC client configured for Kerberos.

    Each host configured to access the Key Distribution Center.

  • Connection using a browser confirmed.

  • Browser configured for LDAP support.
