Warning.png Warning:
If you enable ldap auth, it'll remove all your groups, users, ibay accounts from the unix databases so everything is only in LDAP.

If you attempt to then disable LDAP Authentication this will break everything as you won't have any functioning accounts afterwards, and you will disable LDAP master auth functionality.


LDAP authentication can be enabled (Experimental). Warning - Once enabled it cannot be disabled, so experiment with care. To enable:

db configuration setprop ldap Authentication enabled


Warning.png Warning:
Do not attempt to disable LDAP Authentication once enabled as it will cause your server to become unuseable.
