cloudscape.authentication.ldap.searchAuthDN

Along with cloudscape.authentication.ldap.searchAuthPW, this property indicates how Cloudscape should bind with the LDAP directory server to do searches for user DN (distinguished name). This property specifies the DN; cloudscape.authentication.ldap.searchAuthPW specifies the password to use for the search.

If these two properties are not specified, an anonymous search is performed if it is supported.

For more information about LDAP user authentication, see LDAP Directory Service of the Cloudscape Developer's Guide.
