Configuring LDAP

You can configure Adaptive Server for LDAP authentication and migrate existing Adaptive Servers to LDAP.

1. Specify the Adaptive Server LDAP URL search strings and access account values.

2. Set enable ldap user auth to 2.

3. Add users in the LDAP directory server using LDAP vendor-supplied tools.

4. Add users to Adaptive Server using create login. You can also use sp_maplogin to automatically create login accounts upon authentication or apply other login controls.

To avoid disruption of service in existing server installations, migrate Adaptive Server to LDAP.

1. Specify an LDAP URL search string to Adaptive Server.

2. Set the configuration parameter enable ldap user auth to 1.

3. Add users in the LDAP directory server.

4. When all users are added to the LDAP server, set enable ldap user auth to 2 to require all authentications to be performed with LDAP, or use sp_maplogin to override configuration parameters with login controls.
