Authentication & retrieve user data

The [Authentication & user data] dialog displays the LDAP servers which are available to the application. The application searches for LDAP servers in the local network and domain during the start up of the application. The LDAP servers can be added to two different lists:

• [Servers used for authentication:]

  The first LDAP server in the list is used for the authentication of a user. If the user cannot be authenticated by the first server, then the second server is used, etc.

  User data can be collected from each server in this list.

• [Servers used to retrieve user data:]

  The servers in this list are only used to retrieve user data that is available on an LDAP server. The retrieved user data is filled in automatically in the mapped profile attributes and the mapped job ticket items.
