Using Users from Active Directory via LDAP

Hi there,

a few days ago my boss came around and asked my why our company mails
are not encrypted. So he gave me the job to find a solution. While
searching the web, i've stumbled across ciphermail. It looks perfect for
us so i gave it a try. So far so good. It runs perfect in standalone
mode but no i need to get a connection to our active directory. I've
already setup a ldap server on my windows server 2012r2 and followed
this guide i've found over the net
(http://docplayer.net/14266689-Ciphermail-gateway-web-ldap-authentication-guide.html)
but nothing happens. Is there a difference between tomcat 5 and 7? How
can i debug this? How can i make it work?

thank you

Hi Bernd,

The guide you refer to is an old guide and is probably no longer valid.
The guide explains how to configure an ldap connection so admin's of the
Web GUI can be looked up from ldap.

ldap can be used to store/retrieve all kinds of information. What you
want to accomplish with an ldap connection?

Kind regards,

Martijn Brinkers
