Setting Up Security with AD LDS

Restriction: This topic applies only when the Enterprise Server feature is enabled.

The topics in this section describe how to install and configure AD LDS for use with Enterprise Server's MLDAP_ESM security manager.

AD LDS is a stand-alone LDAP server that is very similar to Active Directory. The key difference is that, unlike Active Directory, AD LDS can be deployed on a server that is not a domain controller. (AD LDS was known as ADAM (Active Directory Application Mode) in previous releases.)

Even if you do not intend to use AD LDS as your LDAP, it is useful to follow the procedures in this section to familiarise yourself with what is involved. This will be a useful exercise if you want to use a more fully-featured LDAP such as Active Directory, or OpenLDAP.
