Setting up Content Manager for LDAP

Run a PowerShell script on the Content Manager server to configure LDAP for your Content Manager. In addition to this script, you can also run scripts to set up HTTPS, SAML, or both.

Before you begin

You must be logged on as an administrator user to perform this task.

PowerShell must be installed on your target system.

Procedure

  1. Access your Content Manager server.
  2. On a system that meets the prerequisites for database installation and upgrade scripts, open PowerShell.
  3. Go the bin\Configuration Scripts\ subfolder of %TRIDION_HOME%.
  4. If you want to use SSL, ensure that the property DS_UseSSL is set to true. It defaults to false.
  5. Enter one of the following:
    • If you created a file with property-value pairs, enter & .\SetupLDAP.ps1 -pf FILE, where FILE is the full path and filename of the file you created.
    • If you did not create a file, enter & .\SetupLDAP.ps1. The script prompts you for values for the properties.

What to do next

LDAP is configured for Content Manager and all its currently installed add-ons. If you add new add-ons later on, rerun this script.
