Server profiles - TODO + The server profiles store information about your LDAP server (e.g. + host name) and what kind of accounts (e.g. users and groups) you would + like to manage. There is no limit on the number of server + profiles. + +
+ Manage server profiles + + Select "Manage server profiles" to open the profile management + page. + + - + - + + + Here you can create, rename and delete server profiles. The + passwords of your server + profiles can also be reset. + + You may also specify the default server profile. This is the + server profile which is preselected at the login page. It also + specifies the language of the login and configuration pages. + + + + + + + + + + You can create a new server profile by simply entering its name + and password. After you created a new profile you can go back to the + profile login and edit your new server profile. + + All operations on the profile management page require that you + authenticate yourself with the configuration master + password. +
+ +
+ Editing a server profile + + Please select you server profile and enter its password to edit + a server profile. + + + + + + + + + + Each server profile contains the following information: + + + + General settings: general + settings about your LDAP server (e.g. host name and security + settings) + + + + Account types: list of + account types (e.g. users and groups) that you would like to + manage and type specific settings (e.g. LDAP suffix) + + + + Modules: list of modules + which define what account aspects (e.g. Unix, Samba, Kolab) you + would like to manage + + + + Module settings: settings + which are specific for the selected account modules on the page + before + + + +
+ General settings + + Here you can specify the LDAP server and some security + settings. + + + + + + + + + + The server address of your LDAP server can be a DNS name or an + IP address. Use ldap:// for unencrypted LDAP connections or TLS + encrypted connections. LDAP+SSL (LDAPS) encrypted connections are + specified with ldaps://. The port value is optional. TLS cannot be + combined with ldaps://. + + LAM includes an LDAP browser which allows direct modification + of LDAP entries. If you would like to use it then enter the LDAP + suffix at "Tree suffix". + + Some LDAP queries are internally cached by LAM. You can + specify how long LAM should use cached data. The search limit is + used to reduce the number of search results which are returned by + your LDAP server. + + The access level specifies if LAM should allow to modify LDAP + entries. This feature is only available in LAM Pro. LAM non-Pro + releases use write access. See this page for details on + the different access levels. + + + + + + + + + + LAM is translated to many different languages. Here you can + select the default language for this server profile. The language + setting may be overriden at the LAM login page. + + + + + + + + + + LAM can manage user home directories and quotas with an + external script. You can specify the home directory server and where + the script is located. The default rights for new home directories + can be set, too. + + + + + + + + + + LAM supports two methods for login. You may either specify a + fixed list of LDAP DNs or let LAM search for the DN in your + directory. E.g. if a user logs in with the user name "joe" then LAM + will do an LDAP search for this user name. When it finds a matching + DN then it will use this to authenticate the user. The wildcard + "%USER%" will be replaced by "joe" in this example. This way you can + provide login by user name, email address or other LDAP + attributes. + + You may also change the password of this server + profile. +
