This article describes a quick way to confirm communication correctly with an LDAP server. |
|
Scope |
FortiMail. |
| Solution |
To perform a test go to Profile -> LDAP -> New. Fill the information requested (like in this example):
Name:LDAP_USer Server name / IP: 192.168.208.9 Base DN: dc=saitlabtacmx,dc=com Bind DN: cn=administrator,cn=user,dc=saitlabtacmx,dc=com Bind password <-- This password must be the same as the LDAP administrator account.
On User Query Option menu, choose the schema to perform the Query. In this example 'Active Directory'.
The test result will fail, displaying the message 'Unable to find user DN that matches mail address'. Back and on LDAP profile configuration go to 'Advanced Option and change the password schema to Active Directory'. Go to the Active Directory, Users & Computers console, and confirm that the properties of each user's E-mail field are filled out.
Go back to FortiMail, go to Test LDAP Query, and perform the test again. The test will now be successful.
