Setting up LDAP session

The LDAP session is setup with the LDAP Server, in this case the computer that runs Novell eDirectory: pacific.tools4ever.local2.

Figure 17: Setup LDAP session script action

The LDAP server is specified using a DNS name or TCP/IP address. The LDAP port only needs to be specified when it does not equal the default port (LDAP, no SSL: 389, LDAP with SSL: 636). The SSL encryption flag is set to enable secure communication. When SSL is used, certificates need to be installed on both the LDAP Server and Client side. The User name depends on the directory service implementation. In this case, an organization O=Servers contains the administrator account admin that is used to access the data. The password is not actually shown.

When the action is successfully executed, the session is initialized. The session object is stored in a variable with default name: %LdapSession%. This session is variable is used in subsequent actions of the script.

Note: When the action is executed, the password specified is send over the line. When SSL is enabled, the password is automatically encrypted since all communication with the LDAP Server is encrypted. When SSL is not used, the password is send as clear text.
