LDAP/SSO Configuration


You may use LDAP and Active Directory user groups to restrict the visibility of certain printers for users.


Configuring LDAP

  1. Open the SEAL APW Service configuration file:

    "C:\ProgramData\SEAL Systems\config\apw-rest.yml"
    
  2. Enter the URL of the LDAP server:

    url: "ldap://<hostname.port>"
    

    Hint - Active Directory server

    If you use an Active Directory server you may use the following setting:

    url: "ldap://<foo.local>"
    
  3. Enter the LDAP Distinguished Name to configure the user search and group membership:

    baseDN: DC=<foo>,DC=<local>
    
  4. Enter user name and password to configure the group search in LDAP:

    username: "<user@foo.local>"
    password: "<secret>"
    
  5. Restart SEAL APW REST service:

    restart-service apw-rest
    
  6. Check the log file for connection errors:

    "C:\ProgramData\SEAL Systems\log\apw-rest.log"
    
  7. Open the http://localhost:8085 index page in a browser.

    The current user name and the group memberships will be displayed.


Activating Single Sign-On

If you wish to activate Single Sign-on (SSO) with NTLM, your browser needs to trust the host name of SEAL APW REST service.

  1. Start Internet Explorer.

  2. Open the following page:

    "Tools/Internet Options/Security/Trusted Sites"
    
  3. Enter the URL of the server on which SEAL APW REST service is installed.
