Configuration Notes
The "bstrDomainContext" string that is passed in must be composed properly to define the parameters of the LDAP Site. The syntax is the same for both methods: a semicolon separated list of name/value pairs that defines the LDAP options.
The entire string is:
LDAPSERVER={IP or Hostname for LDAP server};LDAPPORT={port on LDAP server};BASEDN={base dn for users};USERFILTER={filter for LDAP query to return users};USERATTRIBUTE={what user attribute to use as client login};TYPE={0 for anonymous bind, 1 for simple bind};USERNAME={cn of the user to bind as for querying users};PASSWORD={password for that user};LDAPDB={path to AUD file};SSL={0 for no SSL, 1 for SSL};USESEARCHSCOPE={1 to set search scope, 0 otherwise};SEARCHSCOPE={search scope: 0 => base, 1 => one level, =>subtree};USESEARCHSIZELIMIT={1 to override search page size, 0 otherwise};SEARCHSIZELIMIT={new search page size};USETIMEOUT={1 to use timeout, 0 otherwise};TIMEOUT={timeout in seconds};USEVERSION={1 to use specific version, otherwise 0};VERSION={LDAP version (2 or 3)};USEPAGECONTROL={1 to use LDAP server side page control, 0 otherwise};USEREFERRALS={1 to turn on referral changing; 0 otherwise};USESEARCHATTRIBUTES={1 to select attributes; 0 otherwise };SEARCHATTRIBUTES={search attributes};
You do not have to include the entire string. Any options from USESEARCHSCOPE to the end can be omitted and EFT Server will use their default values.
Examples:
Set Site = Sites.AddLDAPSite("LDAP Site", "C:\sites\LDAP", "", 0, 21, True, True, True, True)
LDAPSERVER=fileserver;LDAPPORT=389;BASEDN=dc=s5development,dc=local;USERFILTER=(objectClass=person);USERATTRIBUTE=cn;TYPE=0;USERNAME=cn=Ivan Smithe,cn=users,dc=development,dc=local;PASSWORD=XXX;LDAPDDB=C:\EFT AppData\MySite.aud;SSL=0;USESEARCHSCOPE=1;SEARCHSCOPE=2;USESEARCHSIZELIMIT=1;SEARCHSIZELIMIT=1000;USETIMEOUT=1;TIMEOUT=60;USEVERSION=1;VERSION=3;USEPAGECONTROL=1;USEREFERRALS=0;USESEARCHATTRIBUTES=1;SEARCHATTRIBUTES=mail,e-mail,name,cn;
