### LDAP Directory Properties

Use this screen to set the LDAP directory properties that are required by PTC.Setup. Select from the following options:

- If you have done the initial installation of an Aphelion directory on the current host, but have not used PTC.Setup to configure the directory, select Configure your Aphelion installation.
- If you are using an existing directory that has already been configured to include the Info*Engine and Windchill LDAP schema, select Add Info*Engine entries to an existing LDAP directory.

Your selection determines which additional fields you must complete.

Note: An LDAP directory is used for storing the LDAP entries related to Info*Engine and to other Windchill software. The only LDAP directory that PTC.Setup configures is the Aphelion LDAP directory. For more information about the Aphelion LDAP directory, see the Aphelion documentation.

For detailed information about installing and using an LDAP directory with Info*Engine, see the Info*Engine Installation and Configuration Guide.

#### Configuring your Aphelion Installation

If you want to configure an Aphelion LDAP directory, select the Configure your Aphelion installation.

Note: To use this option, the directory cannot be running.

Fill in the following fields:

LDAP Directory Access

- Server Host Name—uses the current host. The Aphelion directory must be installed on the current host.
- Port Number—displays the default port number. You can change the default if you want the directory to use a different port.
- Administrator Distinguished Name—defines the distinguished name for the LDE manager. PTC.Setup creates the directory using the distinguished name that you specify.
- Administrator Password—defines the password for the LDE manager.
- Verify—defines the LDE manager password again for verification. Specify the same password that you specified in the Administrator Password field.
- Info*Engine Properties Base Distinguished Name—defines the distinguished name of the top subtree LDAP entry under which Info*Engine component LDAP entries will reside. This entry becomes the initial entry used for the Info*Engine Naming Service search base.

LDAP Directory Configuration

- Company Name—defines the name of your company.
- Context—defines the distinguished name that is used for the context created by PTC.Setup. If you are installing an LDAP directory exclusively for Info*Engine and other Windchill software, you should leave the Context field blank.
  The database context defined here identifies the section of the LDAP directory that is to be stored on the directory host. If you have a good understanding of LDAP directories and want to define the context for LDAP entries that are stored on this host, you can do so. For example, assume that you have created a company-wide LDAP directory using the Aphelion Web tools before running PTC.Setup, and that directory has the following tree structure:
  c=US
  |
  o=myCompany
  |
  l=Pacific
  |
  ou=pUsers

  Then using PTC.Setup, you can add a context under l=Pacific for Info*Engine LDAP entries. If you name the subtree entry ou=pIE, then you would enter the context as:
    ou=pIE,l=Pacific,o=myCompnay,c=US
  Assume that you want the new context to include a general domain structure of the following:

  dc=com
  |
  dc=myCompany
  |
  dc=myLocation
  |
  dc=myHost

  Then, the Info*Engine Properties Base Distinguished Name to enter is:
    dc=myHost,dc=myLocation,dc=myCompany,dc=com,ou=pIE, l=Pacific,o=myCompnay,c=US
  Note: the base distinguished name must include the context.
  In the example shown, PTC.Setup does not connect the context created to the company-wide LDAP directory. If you want them connected, you would use Aphelion Web tools to connect them after completing the PTC.Setup installation.
- Installation Directory—specifies the full directory path where the Aphelion LDAP directory resides. For example, on Windows NT or Windows 2000, the directory file path must match the Destination Folder you chose when you installed Aphelion.

Aphelion Web Tool Administrator

- Login Name—specifies the name of an existing Aphelion Web tool administrator. The Aphelion administrators were defined during the installation of the Aphelion directory. These administrators are members of the LDEAdmin group.
- Password—specifies the current password that is used by the Aphelion administrator that you specify.

#### Adding Info*Engine LDAP Entries to an Existing LDAP Directory

If you choose to use an existing LDAP directory that has already been updated with the Info*Engine and Windchill schema, select the Add Info*Engine entries to an existing LDAP directory and fill in the following fields in the LDAP Directory Access section:

- Server Host Name—specifies the host where the existing LDAP directory resides.
- Port Number—specifies the port number used by the existing LDAP directory. Change the default if the directory uses a different port.
- Administrator Distinguished Name—specifies the distinguished name of the existing LDE manager or a distinguished name that has sufficient privileges to add LDAP entries to the directory.
- Administrator Password—specifies the current password that is used by the distinguished name that you specify.
- Info*Engine Properties Base Distinguished Name—specifies the distinguished name of the top subtree LDAP entry under which Info*Engine component LDAP entries will reside. PTC.Setup does the following:
  - If the subtree entry exists, PTC.Setup overwrites existing entries under specified subtree entry that have the same names as those supplied through the installation.
  - If the subtree entry does not exist, PTC.Setup creates it.
  The specified distinguished name becomes the initial entry used for the Info*Engine Naming Service search base.
