How to configure LDAP
Precise Custom Portal version 9.6 can integrate with Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP).
Once integrated with LDAP, Precise Custom Portal version 9.6 gets all users and groups from the LDAP and synchronizes them into its own database. Login passwords are authorized by LDAP, thus preventing the need to keep (and verify) the users’ passwords within Precise Custom Portal. The following procedure describes how to configure LDAP.
