Authentication: the authentication type. It can be simple or NTLM. The simple authentication sends user names
3
and passwords unencrypted. The NTLM uses NT authentication, which sends the user name and password encrypted.
The NTLM option is safer, but it only works with Microsoft implementations, such as Exchange or Active Directory.
If you are authenticating against an NT domain server, you want to use the NTLM authentication option. If running
a non- Microsoft LDAP server, you probably cannot use NTLM.
Login timeout: the number of seconds before the connection times out if there is no response from the server. The
4
default value is 10 seconds.
Count limit: the maximum number of search result items you would like to retrieve from the server. If the search
5
result contains more items than this limit, only a portion of the result will be retrieved. If you specify 0 for "Count
limit", it means there is no limit, and all the search results will be retrieved. This could take a while in some cases,
and can even cause the server to return with a timeout error. Note that the server itself could have a limit, as most
servers do. You cannot retrieve more search result items than that limit. If you try to do so, you will get a warning
message, but results will still be retrieved, as many as possible. It is also possible that you do not get any result if the
result set is too big. In this case decrease the number for the count limit. The default count limit is 99.
Test
When you have finished configuring the LDAP settings, go to the Test tab and verify that your settings are correct. If
authentication is required, you have to type in a user name (without a domain name) and a password.
You always have to type in a search filter before testing. The default search filter is "(objectClass=*)", which tells the LDAP
server to retrieve everything, but this will almost always exceed the server's internal size limit (or count limit). It is a good
idea to narrow the search. Remember, this is just a test, SendMe will automatically specify a search filter.
Here are some typical tests. Note that not all of them will work on every
Search Filter
cn=br*
cn=*br*
cn=* br* (star, space, b, r, star)
sn=br*
mail=*yahoo.com
There any number of other possible filters that you can try here. Click the "Test Search" button to perform the search. You
will get a list of search results in a popup window, or an error message if there is an error.
Results
All names beginning with br, such as Bruce, Brenda.
All names that contain "br", such as Bruce, Brenda, Brown, Braun, Abraham.
All the names with a last name beginning with "br". For example, Sarah Brightman, Fred Brigham.
If the server supports the sn (surname) attribute, you can search by last name.
This retrieves all the contacts who have a yahoo mail account.
