The following is a suggested baseline configuration for an iFolder 3.
x
server with a workload similar
to a typical iFolder 2.1
x
server. It is based on an example workload of about 12.5 GB of data
throughput (up and down) each 24 hours, including all Ethernet traffic and protocol overhead. Your
actual performance might differ.

3.3 Naming Conventions for Usernames and
Passwords
LDAP Naming Requirement
Usernames and passwords must comply with the constraints set by your LDAP service. For
information, see the
Novell eDirectory 8.7.3 Administration Guide
(http://www.novell.com/
documentation/edir873/treetitl.html)
.
E-Mail Address Naming Requirement
If you configure iFolder to authenticate users at login based on their e-mail addresses, make sure
that each e-mail address in eDirectory satisfies the following naming requirements:
• Conforms to standard e-mail naming conventions
• Is unique in the directory
For example, if two identical e-mail addresses exist in the directory, iFolder could synchronize
both of them, but it attempts to authenticate only to the first matching e-mail address it finds.
Authentication fails if the password does not match that address.
iFolder does not transform the address the user enters in any way and treats the names as case
sensitive. Your users should be aware of the format and case used for their e-mail addresses that are
stored in eDirectory.
For example, if user John Smith has an e-mail address based on a user ID of
js1234
, such as
, but is allowed to use an e-mail alias such as
, which address should the user enter as the iFolder user name?
