Question by Viji R. · Nov 16, 2014 at 09:24 AM ·

LDAP Config - bind DN credentials

Hi,

We are using DT 4.2 version. What is the use/impact of using the Bind DN values ? 

I could see in the documents as, "Bind DN(e.g. cn=dtd,ou=users,dc=company,dc=com)
and a Bind Password if anonymous search for users is not supported. If Bind DN and Bind Password are left blank, anonymous search will be
used to find users."

Is that LDAP configuration not complete without bind DN non user ID ??

Because in our environment, we should undergo the process of changing that non user ID credentials. So please help me here that how can I achieve it without any production impact ?

Thanks,

Viji R.

hi viji,

i'm not entirely sure what your question is, but i guess you are concerned if you NEED the Bind DN values? either you have anonymous search enabled and therefore you DO NOT need the Bind DN values. if you do not have anonymous search enabled, you NEED the Bind DN values to be able to search for users in the directory.

hth and best regards
tobias
