To Deploy on Application Server
Configuring NameFinder to Access Your Directory
After deploying the NameFinder application, Application Server creates a WEB-INF/ container directory that holds NameFinder files. The location of this directory depends on where you installed the Application Server instance.
You must specify in the WEB-INF/classes/NameFinder.properties file how to access the directory that holds the data to retrieve.
The WEB-INF/classes/NameFinder.properties file is located in that directory.
The NameFinder.properties file is a Java properties file. Everything in the file is case sensitive. Adjust at least the following lines:
NameFinder.ldapBase=baseDN NameFinder.ldapServers=serverList NameFinder.ldapVersion=3 NameFinder.ldapPort=ldapPort NameFinder.ldapUser=bindDN NameFinder.ldapPasswd=bindPassword
baseDN is the base DN for people's entries in your organization, such as ou=people,dc=example,dc=com.
serverList is a | separated list of directory servers, such as directory|backup-directory|ext-directory.example.com.
ldapPort is the port number on which the servers listen for LDAP requests, by default 389.
bindDN is the DN used to authenticate.
Do not enclose the bind DN in quotes.
bindPassword is the password used to authenticate.
For hints regarding what you can adjust, read the comments in the WEB-INF/classes/sample.properties file.
After applying changes, you can begin using the NameFinder application to look up contact and organizational information.
After you are satisfied that the NameFinder application works, you can choose to customize the application for your organization.
