The Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) is the standard for accessing directory
servers. LDAP has evolved to become the Internet standard way of accessing online directory
systems. Over 40 organisations, including Microsoft, Novel, Netscape, IBM, Lotus have pledged
support for LDAP.
The CRS uses LDAP to:
Authenticate users
●
Query user data
●
Most directory servers use a standard schema to store typical user information. These schemas
can be extended as required. Any directory server can be integrated with the CRS, provided the
it contains the following items of user information:
Name
●
E-mail address (optional)
●
Telephone
