Configuration
*************
The *LDAP Authentication Module* uses values from settings in the
``[ldap_authentication]`` section of the :doc:`configuration file
<trytond:topics/configuration>`.
To be activated, the ``ldap`` method must be added to the `authentications
<trytond:config-session.authentications>` methods list in the `session
<trytond:config-session>` section of the configuration file.
.. _config-ldap_authentication.uri:
``uri``
=======
The LDAP URL to use to connect to the server following :rfc:`2255`.
It is extended to support `SSL
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secure_Sockets_Layer>`_ and `STARTTLS
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/STARTTLS>`_.
The available protocols are:
- ``ldap``: simple LDAP
- ``ldap+tls``: LDAP with STARTTLS
- ``ldaps``: LDAP with SSL
.. _config-ldap_authentication.uid:

but when set to ``True`` any LDAP user can login.
