Choose your LDAP AD LDS IBM Directory Server
The fully-qualified name of the LDAP server machine The LDAP server is the machine where the LDAP software is installed. It can be the same machine as the Lawson server or a remote machine. Use the machine name and domain name to identify the server. Example: `MachineName`.`DomainName`.com
The LDAP listening port. The LDAP listening port is set when you install the LDAP. The default for TCP/IP is 389. The default for SSL connection is 636.
The DN of an LDAP administrator user. Before you install Lawson, you must configure the LDAP to set up an LDAP administrator user with a Distinguished Name (DN) and password. This user must be able to read and write entries in the LDAP DIT and schema. The install program uses this value to write information to the LDAP.
The password for LDAP administrator user. Before you install Lawson, you must configure the LDAP to set up an LDAP administrator user with a Distinguished Name (DN) and password. This user must be able to read and write entries in the LDAP DIT and schema. The install program uses this value to write information to the LDAP.
The DN into which Resource Management can load metadata. The DN is the location in the LDAP where Lawson will load resource metadata. This location must exist in the LDAP. The install program uses this value to write information to the LDAP. You must define a unique DN for each Environment that will share this LDAP instance.
AD LDS only The Windows user ID of the administrator for the AD LDS instance used for this Lawson Environment. When you install AD LDS, you are asked to specify a Windows user and password for the AD LDS administrator. The install program uses this value to access AD LDS.
AD LDS only The Windows domain for the AD LDS administrator. When you install AD LDS, you are asked to specify a Windows user and password for the AD LDS administrator. Enter the domain name for this user. Example: MachineName
AD LDS only The Windows password for the AD LDS administrator. When you install AD LDS, you are asked to specify a Windows user and password for the AD LDS administrator. The install program uses this value to access AD LDS. Note: You will not be asked for this value during the installation interview. However, you must supply the password when you import the ldif file.
The protocol that Lawson will use to connect to the LDAP. If you choose TCP/IP, all LDAP traffic will occur over an unsecured socket. If you choose SSL, all LDAP traffic will be routed through a secure socket.
Do you want Lawson to consume an existing LDAP user tree? Answer Yes if one of the following situations applies: You already have users set up in the LDAP and you want Lawson to add metadata to the existing DIT. Note: This installation will make changes to your DIT. You have the option to review changes before importing them into the LDAP. You are installing multiple Environments to the same LDAP instance. In this case, you must have created a DN for resources when you set up the LDAP. If you want the install program to create a new DIT for Lawson, choose NO.
If you chose "yes" for the question above, you must provide the following values:
The DN for the container where users are stored in your DIT. You will not see this question if you answered NO to the question above. If you already have users in the LDAP, the DN is the location in your Directory Information Tree (DIT) where users are stored. The install program uses this value to add Lawson resource metadata to your DIT. If you are installing multiple Environments into a single LDAP instance and do not have existing users in the LDAP, enter the DN you created to hold resources here.
Choose the structural class used to define users in your LDAP server. Valid choices are: inetOrgPerson. If you are installing multiple Environments into a single LDAP instance, always choose inetOrgPerson here. user other
If you chose "user" or "other" as a structural class, you must provide the following values:
The naming attribute for your user object
The attribute used to hold a user's first name
The attribute used to hold a user's last name
The attribute used to hold a user's display name
The attribute used to hold a user's email
