LDAP is an Internet protocol for accessing directories in a distributed environment. An LDAP server stores the user information needed to establish connections between resources and grant access to directories, eliminating the need for client applications to know this information. ASE Web Services enables client applications to access Web methods using LDAP.
ASE Web Services supports LDAP version 3 servers. For more detailed information on using LDAP to enable user authentication and to locate Adaptive Server Enterprise data servers, see the System Administration Guide for Adaptive Server Enterprise.
