Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP)/Active Directory Services Interfaces (ADSI)

LDAP directories can run on a different server than the Siebel Server or the Web server. Directory servers are supported if they comply with the LDAP 3.0 standard. Vendors providing directory server products supporting the LDAP 3.0 standard include IBM, Oracle, Microsoft and Novell.

ADSI directories can run on a different server than the Siebel Server or the Web server. Directory servers are supported if they comply with the ADSI 5.0 interface and the AD Domain/Directory Services support compatibility to the supported ADSI version by Microsoft.

For more information about LDAP or ADSI, see Siebel Security Guide on the Siebel Bookshelf.
