Working With LDAP User Accounts (Remote Authentication)

If you forget your operator panel passwords and cannot log in, you
must reset the passwords. Resetting the passwords disables them and
deletes both the admin and user passwords. This means that no login is
required to access the operator panel. You can re-create the passwords
again as needed.
You can only reset operator panel passwords via the Web client.
Web Client
1 Select Setup > User Management > Reset Operator Panel
Passwords.
2 Click Apply.
Local authentication control is managed on the library. An administrator
sets up accounts and privileges on the library. To use local
authentication, a user must enter a local user name and password.
Remote authentication is managed by a Lightweight Directory Access
Protocol (LDAP) server. Enabling LDAP allows existing user accounts
residing on an LDAP server to be integrated into the library's current
user account management subsystem. User account information is
centralized and shared by different applications, simplifying user
account management tasks.
To use remote authentication, you must enable LDAP on the library.
Once LDAP is enabled, users can log into the library using either LDAP or
local authentication. To use LDAP authentication, a user must enter a
directory service user name and password. The Web client Login screen
displays the Remote Authentication login option only when LDAP is
enabled. See Logging in When LDAP or Kerberos is Enabled
page 138.
LDAP logins are only available on the library Web client.
