Optionally, you can configure Unity to authenticate unityadmin users using an LDAP server. Users can be configured in an admin or readonly role. Users with the readonly role are not able to change any configuration, system, or object state within Unity.

  1. Enable LDAP authentication by setting the configuration setting LDAPServerURI.
    unityadmin> config update LDAPServerURI ldap://server.domain.com:389/ REASON 'ldap config';
    You need to configure this setting only once.
  2. Add the user using the ADMIN ADD command, use LDAP for the password.
    unityadmin> admin add username 'First, Last' LDAP readonly;
    Successfully added the administrator 'username' (role readonly)
