Managing LDAP

1. Adding a New Directory using the menu item New Directory (for basic information on how to add a new Directory see link above on How to Create...)
1. Verify the dialog title is "Directory Server Property"
2. Verify the dialog consists of the following and the layout  is correct
3. "General" tab
1. "Description:" text box

2. "LDAP Server:" text box
• verify you can enter any character or combination of characters in this text box

• invalid port number does not crash (non numeric digits), gives proper error message "Please give numeric digits only"
• verify the digit is saved when closing the dialog (note: you must enter data in both Description and LDAP Server text boxes for the New directory to be accepted)
5. "Maximum Number of Hits:" text box
• verify correct action for the numeric entry.  You receive a status message stating "Too many entries found.  Please enter more search criteria." if you have entered a number lower than the expected results.  Example, enter a number like "5" and search on a name like "Mary".
