Configuring the Cleo VLNavigator LDAP server

Use the LDAP Server tab in Cleo VLNavigator to configure the LDAP server to authenticate internal administrators and operators of the Cleo VLNavigator and VersaLex applications.

  1. In Cleo VLNavigator, click the Users node in the tree view.
    The LDAP Server tab appears.
  2. Select the Enabled check box to enable the fields on the tab.
    If the LDAP server is disabled (the Enabled check box is cleared), any LDAP users and the Default LDAP group, if it exists, are displayed in yellow to indicate the LDAP server is currently disabled and, therefore, all LDAP accounts are currently not usable.
  3. Specify values for the fields in the Server Configuration section.
  4. Specify values for the fields in the Domain Configuration section.
    1. Add servers to the list of active LDAP servers. Either retrieve LDAP service records or add them manually.
      • To retrieve LDAP service records, select the Lookup check box, specify a value in the Domain field, and click Refresh. LDAP service records found in the domain you specify are displayed in a table.
      • To add LDAP service records manually, clear the Lookup check box, and click the New button to display a dialog box in which you can enter information for a new record. When you are finished entering the information, click OK to dismiss the dialog box and display the new record in the table.

        Click New to add more new records as necessary.

        While the Lookup check box is cleared, you can right-click service records to edit them or remove them from the list.

    2. Specify values for Base DN, Search Filter and Username Attribute.
      See Cleo VLNavigator LDAP domain configuration reference for information about the fields in the Domain Configuration section.
    3. Optional. Click Advanced to specify password expiration settings. The Advanced button is enabled only when you select Active Directory from the Directory Type menu. See Cleo VLNavigator LDAP server configuration reference.
    4. Click Test to test changes before they are applied. Enter an LDAP username and password. Changes to the Server Configuration panel are not applied until after a successful test login to the LDAP server.
  5. Specify values for the fields in the User Configuration section.
