Registering an LDAP Server
You can specify the relevant information for the LDAP server, such as the server name and address.
1.
Press
(Settings/Registration).
2.
Press [Set Destination] → [Register LDAP Server] → [Register].
3.
Specify each setting → press [Next].
[Server Name]:
Enter a server name → press [OK].
[Server Address]:
Press [Server Address] → enter the server's address → press [OK].
[Position to Start Search]:
Press [Position to Start Search] → enter the location to start searching → press [OK].
If the LDAP server is version 3, then you do not have to specify [Position to Start Search]. (If the LDAP server is version 3, the machine automatically retrieves settings from the server, and sets the location to start searching.) If the LDAP server is version 2, you have to specify [Position to Start Search].
Enter the location to start searching according to the type of LDAP server you are using, or as described below.
If you are using Windows Server 2003 with Active Directory or Windows Server 2008 with Active Directory:
Add "DC=" to each dot separated series of characters in the Active Directory domain name, and separate each series of characters by a comma.
Example: If <team1.salesdept.canon.co.jp> is the domain name in Active Directory:
DC=team1, DC=salesdept, DC=canon, DC=co, DC=jp
If you are using Novell NetWare 5.1 (NDS) or later:
Add "o=", "ou=", or "c=" to each dot separated series of characters for the NDS distinguished name, and separate each series of characters with a comma.
Example: If <TEAM1.SALESDEPT.CANON> is the distinguished name in NDS:
ou=team1, ou=salesdept, o=canon
If you are using Lotus Notes Domino R5 or later:
Enter the dn (Distinguished Name) of the node on the directory tree, such as "ou=team1", "ou=salesdept", "o=canon", or "c=jp".

You can only select [Use (Security Auth.)] next to <Authentication Information> if the LDAP server is running on Windows Server 2003 with Active Directory or Windows Server 2008 with Active Directory.
If you entered an IP address in step 3, and Reverse DNS Lookup (a function that looks up the host name from the IP address) is not supported, select either [Use] or [Do Not Use].
If you select [Use (Security Auth.)] for <Authentication Information>, and the [Date/Time Settings] in [Preferences] (Settings/Registration) are different from the time settings on the LDAP server, the machine may not be able to connect to the LDAP server.

Press [User Name] → enter "Windows domain name/Windows user name".
Example: If <team1> is the Windows domain name, and <user1> is the Windows user name:
team1/user1
If you are using Novell NetWare 5.1 (NDS) or later:
Add "o=", "ou=", or "c=" to each dot separated series of characters for the NDS distinguished name, and separate each series of characters with a comma.

cn=user1, ou=team1, ou=salesdept, o=canon
