<div><p>An LDAP directory is a listing of information about objects arranged
|
||
|
|
in a particular order that gives details about each object.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>One special characteristic of directories is that they are accessed (read
|
||
|
|
or searched) much more often than they are updated (written). Hundreds of
|
||
|
|
people might look up an individual's phone number, but the phone number rarely
|
||
|
|
changes.</p>

<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">LDAP configuration</h4><p>When you configure the LDAP server,
|
||
|
|
you must specify the suffixes you want to be provided on the LDAP server.
|
||
|
|
For example, the suffix dc=myhost,dc=mycompany,dc=com is the default suffix
|
||
|
|
that is set up when the LDAP server is automatically configured for the server
|
||
|
|
that has the TCP/IP host name of myhost.mycompany.com. Objects in a directory
|
||
|
|
are referenced by a distinguished name (DN) attribute. You must specify a
|
||
|
|
path (parent DN) where you want your IBM<sup>®</sup> Telephone Directory information to exist.
|
||
|
|
The default parent DN that is used is cn=users prepended to the TCP/IP hostname.
|
||
|
|
For example: cn=users,dc=myhost,dc=mycompany,dc=com.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>Certain applications
|
||
|
|
use IBM Welcome
|
||
|
|
Page V1.1 for configuration.For example, the LDAP server is configured for
|
||
|
|
use with the IBM Telephone
|
||
|
|
Directory V5.2 but set up in the IBM Welcome Page V1.1 application during
|
||
|
|
installation. When the application is installed, it uses the default value
|
||
|
|
cn=users and prepends it to the host name. You can override the default value
|
||
|
|
by specifying which parent DN value you want to use during installation. IBM Telephone
|
||
|
|
Directory information can reside in an existing location where organizational
|
||
|
|
information is already kept. It also can exist in a new location. For example,
|
||
|
|
if you have an existing organization o=company that has existing inetOrgPerson
|
||
|
|
entries, you can configure IBM Telephone Directory to use this parent DN, and it
|
||
|
|
will access your existing information. The inetOrgPerson object class is an
|
||
|
|
industry standard class that is commonly used to represent and store information
|
||
|
|
about people, such as first and last name, telephone numbers, and email addresses.
|
||
|
|
Installation of the application also creates additional entries in the parent
|
||
|
|
DN for IBM Telephone
|
||
|
|
Directory to use. The entries created are:</p>
|
||
|
|
<ul><li><span class="uicontrol">cn=Administrators</span> <p>This is a group that has authority
|
||
|
|
to create, update, search, and delete entries in the directory."</p>
|
||
|
|
</li>
|
||
|
|
<li><span class="uicontrol">cn=Administrator</span> <p>This is a user that is a member
|
||
|
|
of the cn=Administrators group and has authority to create, update, search,
|
||
|
|
and delete entries in the directory. The user name you specify when authenticating
|
||
|
|
in the application is Administrator and the password is the password specified
|
||
|
|
during installation.</p>
|
||
|
|
</li>
|
||
|
|
<li><span class="uicontrol">cn=itdCreateAdministrator</span> <p>This
|
||
|
|
user is created when open enrollment is specified during installation. It
|
||
|
|
allows users to only be added to the application and is used when registering
|
||
|
|
users in the application for open enrollment.</p>
