Configuring AR System servers to use the AREA LDAP plug-in
To configure AR System servers to work with the AREA LDAP plug-in, use the EA (external authentication) tab in the AR System Administration: Server Information form. External authentication (including chaining) works only if you do the following in the EA tab:
- Set External Authentication Server RPC Program Number to 390695
- Select either Authenticate Unregistered Users or Cross Reference Blank Password or both.
For more information, see Configuring-authentication-processing.
After you configuring your AREA LDAP plug-in and your AR System server, you configure AR System to use external authentication processing. See Configuring authentication processing.
