Configuring Contribute Publishing Server (CPS only)

If you are using Contribute Publishing Server (CPS) with Contribute, it's important to configure
the User Directory service when you deploy. User Directory service is a user management solution
that lets you integrate Contribute with your organization's user directory to easily manage and
authenticate users.
You can also configure the E-mail Notification and Log services at the same time, or you can wait
until later. At a later time you will probably also want to set up Simple File Deployment service
and RSS Feed service. For more information, see Chapter 1, "Using Contribute Publishing
Server" in Macromedia Contribute Publishing Server Help.
Before you configure the User Directory service, you should understand the two authentication
models available, and how Contribute works with LDAP and what the LDAP authentication
workflow is.
