Import users from an LDAP directory
LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol) is a method of querying directory systems that contain information
about users, such as user names and passwords. You can import users from an LDAP server and map their user
attributes (such as user name and password) to Version Cue user attributes. Users that you import from an LDAP
server appear with a user icon
Click the Advanced tab in Version Cue Server Administration.
1
Click LDAP Preferences.
2
Click Enable LDAP Support, and then enter information about the LDAP server:

•
Enter the server name in the LDAP Server box.
• Enter the server port in the Server Port box.
•
Enter the starting point in the LDAP hierarchy for the directory on the LDAP server in the Base DN box.
• If the LDAP server requires authentication, enter a user name and password in the Bind DN and Password text
boxes.
• Select Use LDAP With SSL if you want to connect via SSL to an SSL-enabled LDAP server.
•
Enter LDAP attributes in the User-Id, Displayname, E-Mail, Info, and Phone text boxes. Version Cue maps these
attributes to the corresponding Version Cue Server attributes.
• To specify that the Version Cue Server periodically synchronizes with the LDAP server, select Enable Automatic
Synchronization and specify a synchronization period.
Click Save.

Export a list of users
To add a set of users to another Version Cue Server, export a list of users, and then copy it to the UsersExport folder
in the Version Cue application folder of the other computer with a Version Cue Server. You can then use the export
list to import users.
