5.5.2 Connecting NAS to an LDAP Directory
LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol) is a directory that can store the
information of every user and group in a centralized server. Administrators can use
LDAP to manage users in the LDAP directory and allow them to connect to multiple NAS
with the same login details. This feature is intended for use by administrators and users
who have knowledge of Linux servers, LDAP servers, and Samba. A running LDAP server
is required when using this feature.
