LDAP Connection Settings

LDAP Directory Type

Please select the type of the LDAP directory you want to connect to. You can either select Microsoft Active Directory, OpenLDAP or IBM Domino Directory as the LDAP directory that Cryptshare uses to look up user SMTP email addresses.

The choice defines which attributes and objectClasses are used when requesting user and group objects:

Type ObjectClass Person ObjectClass Group Member Attribute
Microsoft AD person group member
OpenLDAP inetOrgPerson groupOfNames member
IBM Domino Directory dominoPerson dominoGroup member

LDAP Server Address

Cryptshare can be setup  in order to use two LDAP servers. In case the main LDAP server cannot be reached the fallback server will be used. If no fallback server is configured only the main server will be used.

Main Server Address

The address of the main LDAP server. Cryptshare will use this server for all LDAP queries if no additional fallback server is configured.

Fallback Server (Optional)

The address of the fallback LDAP Server. If the main LDAP server is unreachable this server will be used as a fallback.

Connect via secure port

By default, Cryptshare will try to connect to your LDAP server using the default port 389. Usually this is the port for an unencrypted connection.
To improve security we recommend to connect to your LDAP server securely by selecting the option 'Connect via secure port'. This will enable the use of an SSL connection when connecting to the LDAP server.
By default, secure LDAP connections are established through port 636.

Port / Secure Port

If your LDAP server does not use the default ports you can change the port number to suit your needs.
