I've seen alot of tutorials about ldap "basedn" which imply that you can use a generic string like
"mycompany".
However, in my case, I already have an ldap server, and the root of it seems to be:
o=Directory
ou=groups
ou=users
Thus, i dont see anything alont the lines of "mycompany" anywhere.
I do however have a "login" account which has been given to me :
cn=Admin,o=Directory
So - when i configure LDAP, how can i know what the right BaseDN is ? When setting up ldap authentication (1) What does Base DN refer to on my LDAP server and (2) how do I find out what that references value is?
FYI Im using authconfig-tui to connect a Red Hat linux machine to an external phpLDAPAdmin created machine configured in AWS via OpenLDAP Directory Server, provided by JumpBox - so the server side LDAP stuff has been set up for me already.
