Configuring the default directory protocol
Using eDirectory Agent | Web Security Solutions | Versions 7.7 and 7.8
Websense eDirectory Agent can use Netware Core Protocol (NCP)—the Windows default—or Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP)—required on Linux—to retrieve user logon information from Novell eDirectory.
In Windows environments, NCP generally provides a more efficient query method. If your network supports LDAP, however, you can configure eDirectory Agent to use LDAP:
1.
2.
3.
Go to the eDirectory Agent directory (C:\Program Files or Program Files (x86)\Websense\Web Security\bin or /opt/Websense/bin/, by default).
4.
Locate the file wsedir.ini and make a backup copy in another directory.
5.
6.
Modify this QueryMethod entry as follows:
QueryMethod=0
Here, 0 enables LDAP queries. (1, the default, enables NCP queries.)
7.
8.
eDirectory Agent now uses LDAP to query the directory service.
