ldap.bind.authenticator.enabled=true

ldap.config.context.factory=com.sun.jndi.ldap.LdapCtxFactory
ldap.config.hostname=[ldap_hostname]
ldap.config.base.dn=[ldap_base_dn]
ldap.config.port=[ldap_port]
ldap.config.mapper.attribute.user.id=cn
ldap.config.mapper.attribute.user.email=email
ldap.config.mapper.attribute.fullname=givenName
