Connecting to the ADAM/AD LDS server

The ADAM server is a database that maintains all the security around user profiles, access controls, and station information on systems running Windows Server 2003. The AD LDS server performs the same function on systems running Windows Server 2008. Connect to the ADAM/AD LDS server so that IMPAX Client users can be added.

Note:

Note:

When the primary instance of ADAM/AD LDS is on the Application Server you are configuring, the fully qualified domain name and port number are automatically populated from the DSN information on the computer. If you are connecting to an ADAM/AD LDS instance on another Application Server, the domain and hostname must point to that server.

To connect to the ADAM/AD LDS server

  1. Open the Business Services Configuration Tool.

  2. Switch to the Security tab.

  3. In the Server Fully Qualified Hostname field, enter the domain and host name of the ADAM/AD LDS server.

    The fully qualified domain name consists of a host, domain name, and top-level domain. For example, machinename.networkname.hospitalname.com.

  4. Type the Port number of the ADAM/AD LDS server.

    The default port number of the ADAM/AD LDS server is 636.

  5. Click Apply.
