LDAP Connector: SSL support and de-provisioning

[tombo_larsen]

Hi guys

I have two questions regarding the SAP LDAP Connector (LDAP client):

1) Does the SAP LDAP connector support connections to SSL-enabled directories?

2) Does the SAP LDAP connector make it possible to delete SAP users, when the corresponding user is deleted in the directory (which is the 'leading' system in such a scenario).

I remember that LDAP connector doesn't support SSL connection... Some people make it works in SSL with a ssl tunneling (look here http://www.stunnel.org/)

Hi

I 'think' that I have read somewhere that 'LDAP Connector' does not support SSL, but I cannot find any official documentation for this or the opposite.

Thanks for the link regarding SSH.

Hi

Just an update.

SSL is in general not available for the SAP provided 'LDAP connector', however on the windows platform SSL should work as descrived in SAP note 0000456666.

Hi

As descriced SSL is in general not implemented for the SAP LDAP connector. On windows platform SSL on the std. port for SSL should work. Please consult SAP Note 0000456666

Tom,

The IDM LDAP connector does support SSL. The LDAP connector will support add, modify and delete operations.

This [thread|; might be helpful as well.

Hi Matt

Just to clarify: My questions are about the 'LDAP connector' and the standard ABAP program 'RSLDAPSYNC_USER' - not about SAP NW IDM.

The thread you mentioned seems to be about SAP NW IDM, so I am unsure if your answers are for the 'LDAP connector' or 'SAP NW IDM'?

Ok, I was assuming this was as IDM question. Good luck!
