Resolving LDAP-authenticated password problems
Most problems that arise from password authentication might be attributed to the connection between the IBM Storage Protect server and the LDAP directory server.
Before you can use the LDAP-authenticated password, you must configure the LDAP directory server to communicate with the IBM Storage Protect server. For more information, see Authenticating users by using an Active Directory database.
For the LDAP authentication method that is used with the IBM Storage Protect server 7.1.7 and later, a user (LDAPUSER) is no longer required full directory authority for authentication. A user can authenticate with the default user authority in Active Directory. Full directory authority is still required for IBM Security® Directory Server LDAPUSER accounts.
