How to set up LDAP integration in Fortimail

jinbocho · ‎11-30-2023

Does anyone know the detailed procedure to link FortiMail with AD's LDAP server?

I was able to create an LDAP profile and reference it from the bind DN,
I can't find any information on how to link users after that.

Hello @jinbocho

In LDAP profile please make sure "Group query Options" is enabled and after filling required information, you can test it. After that you need to create Recipient Based Policies to apply required policies.

I changed the DNS to 96.45.45.45 and was able to browse AD.
However, when I do the LDAP query test, it says Unable to find user DN that matches mail address and the test does not succeed.

Is this a problem with the AD configuration?

Hello @jinbocho,

I might be the DN is not matching against the user account and BTW, is there any reason to use public DNS 96.45.45.45 ?

Where is your mail server located, in cloud or on-premises ?

regards,

Sheikh
