Teamsite LDAP integration

Hi all,

I am integrating Teamsite 6.7 with LDAP server for authentication purposes. I have few questions about this:

1. I dont see a configuration in iw.cfg where i can specify multiple LDAP servers. This is for high availability purposes where i can specify the backup LDAP server when primary LDAP server goes down.
2. Can i enable SSL between Teamsite and LDAP communication?
3. Is it possible to encrypt iw.cfg? Any out of the box configuration?

I would appreciate if you can answer any of these questions or point me to the right documentation.

Thanks,
Subash.

What is the underlying OS that TeamSite is running on?

Teamsite will be running on windows.

Look in the iw-home/conf/roles/user_databases.xml file for the ability to supply multiple configurations under TeamSite 6.7.1 and beyond.

you can configure LDAP for communicating over SSL. Find the attached details as in TeamSite Administration Guide :

When user authentication is done using LDAP, the communication between
TeamSite and the LDAP server may optionally use SSL. This requires setting the
last two parameters.

1 ssl-port is the port that the LDAP server uses to communicate when SSL is in use.
This is assumed to be port 636.
2 cafile-location specifies the location of your CA certificate database file. This
file is expected to be in Netscape “cert7” format. A default “cert7.db file” that
contains the certifications for a variety of Certification Authorities is found in the
TeamSite installation in the directory iw-home\tools\db\netscape\cert7.db
