•Enter the OpenLDAP server address into the HOST field.

•Specify the LDAP service port in the LDAP Port field. Use port 389 for standard LDAP connections or port 636 for secure LDAPS connections.

•Enable USE SSL (TLS) to establish a secure encrypted connection to the OpenLDAP server. This is recommended.

•Enable USE Basic Authentication if the default Negotiate authentication method does not work with the OpenLDAP server.

•Enter the bind user Distinguished Name (DN) into the USER field (e.g., dc=example, dc=com) and the corresponding password into the PASSWORD field.

•Enter the search base into the BASE DN field to specify the starting point for directory queries (e.g., DC=example,DC=com) may be necessary.

•Enter the schema location into the SCHEMA DN field if schema information is required for the connection. In most cases this field can be left empty, and the system will use the default schema. However, if specific schema access is needed, specify the schema DN (e.g., cn=schema, cn=config or cn=subschema).
