4.3.1.1 Configuring Connection Parameters
To configure connection parameters:
1 If not already known, obtain the LDAP server’s host name and Kerberos server information
by running the
ldapsearch command or using ldp.exe (available as part of the
downloadable Windows Support Tools from Microsoft). You must know the LDAP server’s IP
address.
◆ Issue the ldapsearch command and record the displayed dnsHostName (the value
used for the
ldap-server-hn parameter) and ldapServiceName (the value used
for the
kerberos-realm parameter) attributes for later use.
◆ Run ldp.exe as follows:
1) Click Start > Run.
2) In the Open box, enter
ldp and click OK.
3) The Ldp window opens.
4) In the Ldp window, click Connection > Connect.
5) In the Server box, enter the Active Directory server’s IP address and click OK.
The root DSE attributes and values are displayed in the right-side pane.
6) Record the displayed
dnsHostName (the value used for the ldap-server-hn
parameter) and
ldapServiceName (the value used for the kerberos-realm
parameter) attributes for later use.
NOTE: If you do not have access to the ldapsearch command, use the ldp.exe
command shown below.
NOTE: In ldp.exe, the Kerberos realm is the portion of the ldapServiceName
value that follows the “at” (@) sign and terminates before the semi-colon (;).
In ldapsearch output, the Kerberos realm is the portion of the ldapServiceName
value that follows the “at” (@) sign.
