Setup and configuration

The AuthenticationService manages all LDAP authentication requests. The types of authentication a station supports, in this case LDAP, are determined solely by this service. The most important element in LDAP authentication is the LDAP authentication scheme. A station supports multiple schemes, with each user account tied to a specific scheme.

Use this checklist to guide the setup and configuration process:

All prerequisites fulfilled. See Prerequisites.
LDAP authentication scheme selected and properties configured. See Setting up the authentication scheme.
User prototypes set up. See Setting up user prototypes.
Local super user and service users set up. See Setting up local users.
If you are using the KerberosScheme, PC client configured for Kerberos. See Setting up a client PC for Kerberos.
Each host configured to access the Key Distribution Center. See Setting up access to the Key Distribution Center.
Connection using a browser confirmed. See Making sure you can connect using a browser.
Browser configured for LDAP support.
