These instructions document how to configure uPortal itself to perform authentication against LDAP. It is also possible to configure the bundled CAS instance, or some other CAS server, to connect to LDAP instead of following this approach.
Add the ldap connection context to uportal-impl/src/main/resources/properties/contexts/ldapContext.xml
| Code Block |

<bean id="defaultLdapServer" class="org.jasig.portal.ldap.ContextSourceLdapServerImpl">
<property name="ldapContextSource" ref="legacyLdapContext"/>
<property name="uidAttribute" value="uid"/>
<property name="baseDN" value="ou=People, dc=myuniv, dc=edu"/>
</bean>
<bean id="legacyLdapContext" class="org.springframework.ldap.core.support.LdapContextSource">
<property name="url" value="ldap://ldap.myuniv.edu:389"/>
<property name="userName" value=""/>
<property name="password" value=""/>
</bean>

Add the SimpleLdapSecurityContextFactory to uportal-impl/src/main/resources/properties/security.properties
| Code Block |

## This is the factory that supplies the concrete authentication class
root=org.jasig.portal.security.provider.UnionSecurityContextFactory
root.simple=org.jasig.portal.security.provider.SimpleSecurityContextFactory
root.ldap=org.jasig.portal.security.provider.SimpleLdapSecurityContextFactory
