Enabling LDAP Authentication for a Post Office
To configure the POA to perform LDAP authentication for the users in a post office:
1 In ConsoleOne, browse to and right-click the Post Office object, then click Properties.
2 Click GroupWise > Security to display the Security page.
3 For Security Level, select High.
4 In the High Security Options box, select LDAP Authentication.
5 If you want the POA to access the LDAP server with specific rights to the LDAP directory,
specify a username that has those rights.
If you are using a Novell LDAP server, you can browse for an eDirectory User object. The
information returned from eDirectory uses the following format:
cn=username,ou=orgunit,o=organization
If you are using another LDAP server, you must type the information in the format used by that
LDAP server.
If the LDAP username for the POA requires a password, click Set Password, type the password
twice for verification, then click Set Password.
