The Antiflux user directory is accessible by LDAP. If you are using pine, mutt or Squirrelmail, you can configure them to access the user directory via LDAP with the following settings:


LDAP Server: localhost 
Base DN: ou=People,dc=antiflux,dc=org 


In order to connect to the LDAP server remotely (i.e., when using an IMAP mail client such as Outlook or Thunderbird), you will need to configure your LDAP client (i.e., your mail client) to use SSL and client certificates.

<ol>
<li>Obtain and install an SSL [[SSL Client Certificate Creation|client certificate]] signed by the [[Antiflux root CA|Antiflux CA]]</li>

<li>Configure your LDAP client with the following settings:


LDAP Server/Hostname): antiflux.org 
Base DN: ou=People,dc=antiflux,dc=org 
Port Number: 636 
Bind DN: uid=username,ou=People,dc=antiflux,dc=org (where username is your Antiflux username) 
Search Filter: (uid=*) (optional) 

</li>

<li>Ensure that your LDAP client is using a secure (SSL) connection.</li>
</ol>

You may be prompted to enter a password for the LDAP server. This is the same as your password for accessing other Antiflux services.
