Attribute Description
Connector The directory connector to use when communicating with the directory server.
URL The connection URL to use when connecting to the directory server, e.g.: ldap://localhost:389, or port 639 for SSL.
Secure SSL Specifies if the connection to the directory server is a SSL connection.
Use Node Referrals Use the JNDI lookup java.naming.referral option. Generally needed for Active Directory servers configured without proper DNS, to prevent a 'javax.naming.PartialResultException: Unprocessed Continuation Reference(s)' error.
Use Paged Results Use the LDAP control extension for simple paged results option. Retrieves chunks of data rather than all of the results at once. This feature may be necessary when using Microsoft Active Directory if more than 999 results are returned for any given search.
Password Encryption Select the type of encryption that the directory uses.
Base DN Enter the root distinguished name to use when running queries versus the directory server, e.g.: o=acmecorp,c=com.
User DN The username that Crowd will use when connecting to the directory server.
