Username Format
LDAP usernames should be entered exactly as entered for the
LDAP Distinguished Name in the server console.
WARNING: The examples provided here are based on standard default
settings in LDAP for Microsoft Active Directory Services. The suggested
entries and examples may not be applicable to all other server types,
or if any changes have made to default settings on the LDAP Active
Directory server.
Examples:
CN=Jane Doe, CN=Users, DC=qc, DC=local
CN=Public\, Joe Q., OU=Users, OU=Sales, DC=qc,
DC=local
CN=Doe\, John, CN=Users, DC=qc, DC=local
If
the user's name includes characters such as a comma (,), semicolon
(;), equals sign (=), quotation mark ("), plus sign (+), backslash
(\), less than symbol (<), or greater than symbol (>), a backslash
(\) must be entered before that character.
As in the example above, if the user's name in the console is Doe,
John you would enter the username in the conf file as Doe\,
John. (See the console examples for Public\,
Joe Q. and for Doe\,
John.)
If the username contains a backslash, you must enter an additional
backslash before that character.
