What LDAPtITTM does

LDAPtITTM is a general purpose LDAP proxy. It enables the interoperability between LDAP client applications and a variety of industry standard LDAP servers.

LDAPtITTM for MIMEsweeperTM gives you interoperability between MIMEsweeper and WEBsweeper and a variety of industry standard LDAP servers.

LDAPtITTM gives you all the benefits of MIMEsweeper but with:
  • Your choice of LDAP server, compatible with your existing infrastructure.
All too often, incompatible query language, unsuitable directory structure and different schema definitions get in the way of interoperability between LDAP client and server applications. When these problems occur, the LDAP client and server applications may not offer good diagnostic tools.

Overly general queries may result in excessively high volumes of data in responses and performance may suffer.

Unexpected query status or result codes may confuse the LDAP client and cause an unnecessary query failure.

LDAPtITTM solves these problems by providing:
  • Translation of LDAP queries and responses between MIMEsweeper or WEBsweeper clients and a variety of industry standard LDAP servers.
  • Detailed LDAP Logging so you can see what is really causing the incompatibility and fix it.
Possible uses of LDAPtITTM are when:

  • You want to use MIMEsweeper or WEBsweeper version 4 with Novell’s NDS or the Lotus Domino LDAP server. Structural and schema incompatibility normally prevents MIMEsweeper or WEBsweeper successfully interoperating with either NDS or Domino. LDAPtITTM makes it work.
  • You want to diagnose mysterious errors between MIMEsweeper or WEBsweeper and a new LDAP server system.
  • Performance of LDAP queries over the wide area network is generating unexpectedly high traffic volumes.
If MIMEsweeper or WEBsweeper do not work with your LDAP server, you need LDAPtITTM.

LDAPtITTM allows you to successfully connect MIMEsweeper or WEBsweeper to Novell NDS, Lotus Domino, Microsoft Active Directory, OpenLDAP and more.


How LDAPtITTM works

LDAPtITTM translates MIMEsweeper and WEBsweeper LDAP queries to a form suitable for use by the LDAP server. It translates LDAP server responses to a form suitable for use by MIMEsweeper and WEBsweeper.

LDAPtITTM has a flexible translation language that allows the definition of the mapping between each query and response. It has common mappings predefined ready for use.

LDAPtITTM is a secure LDAP proxy supporting multi port operation, port mapping and IP address dedication. It is installed on the MIMEsweeper or WEBsweeper system.

LDAPtITTM’s logging can record the full detail of the LDAP conversation between client and server.


How LDAPtITTM is licensed

LDAPtITTM is licensed for a specific client and server combination. One license is required to connect MIMEsweeper to a specific server type; another license is required to connect WEBsweeper to a specific server type.

LDAPtITTM is licensed on a per user basis. The number of users licensed for LDAPtITTM must be the same as the number licensed for MIMEsweeper or WEBsweeper.

Software Prerequisites

MIMEsweeper and WEBsweeper version 4 and above. .
