TDV can leverage enterprise LDAP implementations of Active Directory, eDirectory domains, groups, and users to authorize views and use, creation and management of TDV-defined resources. Currently supported LDAP authentication servers are listed in the TDV Installation and Upgrade Guide.

To configure and manage LDAP domains, groups, users, and rights, the administrator needs two rights: Read and Modify All Users, and Access Tools.

Manager also lets the administrator specify LDAP authentication. LDAP configurations and usage are described in Dynamic Domain Administration.
