  •
Consult your LDAP expert for your DN information.

Troubleshooting Tips
If you chose HTTP Basic Authentication as your login method, restart the Cisco Unified MeetingPlace 
Web Conferencing service after configuring your LDAP authentication. If you do not, users who change 
their passwords in LDAP will be able to log in to Cisco Unified MeetingPlace by using both their old 
and new passwords until the Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Web Conferencing service is restarted or after 
approximately 60 minutes.
Note
When you restart the web server, all manual changes made to the registry are lost.
