Dear all,
Could you please assist regarding these questions related to LDAP authentication to our ABAP based systems?
Our questions are:
1) We do not wish to alter the LDAP server in any fashion. We wish to
use the LDAP server as we do with our Enterprise Portal systems,
authenicating only. If we simply want to use the LDAP server for
authentication purposes, do we need to have a user on the LDAP server
with essentially superuser priviliges??
2) A firewall exists between our SAP servers and the LDAP server. Are
there any non-standard ports that SAP needs to use in order to
communicate with the LDAP server??
3) All of the examples that I have seen documented use port 389
(unsecure LDAP) to communicate with the LDAP server. Is there a way to
use LDAPs (secure) to facilitate authentication??
Any assistance will be very welcome,
Many thanks in advance,
