Resolution

1․ ENTER LDAP CONFIGURATION DETAILS: Provide the appropriate configuration values for your external LDAP server in the specified fields on the OneClick administration page․
Path/Command: Navigate to OneClick Administration -> LDAP Configuration
EXPECTED: Configuration fields accept the input values․
2․ PROVIDE CORRECT TEST CREDENTIALS: Enter the user name and password of the test Active Directory user account in the test authentication section․

EXPECTED: The text fields accept the test user name and password․
3․ RUN THE AUTHENTICATION TEST: Click the Test button to verify the LDAP configuration․
EXPECTED: The test completes successfully.
4․ SAVE THE CONFIGURATION: Click the Save button to apply and commit the changes to the OneClick web server configuration․
