Authentication Method
Select a method to perform LDAP authentication from [Direct Authentication] and
[Authentication of User A
ttributes].
• Direct Authentication
User ID and password entered by a user are used for LDAP authentication.
• Authentication of User Attributes
The user ID entered is used as an attribute specified in [Attribute
of Typed User Name]
to perform a search on the
LDAP server. [Attribute of Login User Name] of a user found
through the search is used as the user ID of a job and the owner of a job flow sheet and a
folder.
Attribute of Typed User Name
When [Authentication of User Attributes] is used for LDAP authentication, set the
attribute of the user ID
entered. Up to 32 characters are allowed.
Set the attribute of the User Attribute information registered on the LDAP server that
corresponds to the
value to be entered as the user name from the control panel. For example,
when you want a user to enter the mail address, set "mail."
Attribute of Login User Name
Enter an attribute to be used for LDAP authentication using User Attribute information
registered on
the LDAP server. Up to 32 characters are allowed.
Use Added Text String
Select whether or not to automatically add text strings in [Text String Added to User Name]
when you enter the authentication information from the control panel.
Text String
Added to User Name
Enter text strings for [Text String Added to User Name]
when you use additional text
strings. Up to 64 characters are allowed.
When [Use Added Text String] is set to [Enabled], enter the corresponding fixed text string.
For Example:
When "mail" is set for [Attribute of Typed User
Name] and the information registered for
the
target user is "[e-mail]," you will need to enter
"[e-mail]".
However, if [Use Added Text String] is set to [Enabled] and "@myhost.example.com" is
specified for [Text String Added to User Name
], you will only need to enter "mail" from the
control panel because the machine adds "@myhost.example.com" to the end of the string.
Attribute of Smart Card
When a smart card is used for LDAP authentication, set the at
tribute of the card ID to
perform a search on the LDAP server to authenticate the user who has the card. Up to 32
characters are allowed.
Note • This item is displayed when [Passcode Entry for Smart Card Login] under [Tools] > [Authentication /
Security Settings] > [Authentication] > [Passcode Policy] is set to [Off].
Network User ID Attribute
When a smart card is used for LDAP authentication, set the attribute of the user name to
be used for a smart card ID search. The user name is given to the remote service as the
auth
entication information. Up to 32 characters are allowed.
