16 Overview
Description
CPS is a suite of Java server applications that lets you integrate
Contribute with Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) or Active
Directory services, and implement e-mail notifications to keep Contribute
users informed about the status of their drafts in progress.
To use CPS, you must install and configure the server on a Java
application server.
For more information, see
(Optional)" on page 37
Configure the administrative settings so that Contribute works more
efficiently with your website and create Contribute roles based on the
privileges and restrictions you want to place on a user's ability to access
and edit pages in the site.

If you use CPS, you need to configure the User Directory service: you
must specify the user directory type, and either configure CPS to access
your LDAP or Active Directory server, or enter user information into a file-
based database. You can also configure other CPS services now, or you
can do it later.
For more information, see

configure these CPS services now, or you can do it later.
