Enabling LDAP after installation

You can decide to enable LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol) after you install Content Manager Enterprise Edition by using the LDAP Enable utility (recommended), or at installation time.

About this task

Content Manager Enterprise Edition supports importing of users and user authentication using the standard LDAP protocols, from the following:
  • IBM® Tivoli® Directory Server
  • Lotus Domino Directory Notes Address Book (NAB)
  • Microsoft™ Windows™ Active Directory
  • Sun Java™ System Directory Server
  • Novell eDirectory
You can select IBM Directory and Domino Address Book from the installation menu as the Standard LDAP option and in the system administration client utility program as the LDAP selection.

Content Manager Enterprise Edition now supports NLS characters in user IDs. If you are an administrative user (for example, DB2ADMIN), all of the rules for user ID rules still apply.
