Most clients need the same configuration to be used against a LDAP directory. Usually you need a search base, a server name, and sometimes, if you need to authenticate your client to the server, a binddn and a bindpassword. In this examples we will be using configuration settings needed to browse the ldapconf demo server, if you already have access to a working LDAP directory you should just change this key information, if not, feel free to test your setup against the demoserver.
