# This property does not apply in case created users are client admins.

termweb.properties parameter example:

  • login.ldap.enabled=true

  • login.ldap.url=ldap://bla.something.eu:10300

  • login.ldap.user.node=uid=${username},ou=users,ou=system

  • api.new.user.is.admin=false

  • api.default.user.group=API Group

When using LDAP, the user authenticates in an intranet and the LDAP service provider uses this information to authenticate the user to TermWeb.

In this case if the user does not exist in TermWeb, he/she gets created automatically.

The  authentication process is done via the standard TermWeb login page, user enters username and password stored in the LDAP server, TermWeb connects to LDAP service provider and authorises user.
