Turn off LDAP authentication

During some maintenance operations, such as upgrades, you may need to turn off LDAP authentication.

1. Open the site-options.conf file, the master configuration file that controls your TeamForge site.
   • vi /opt/collabnet/teamforge-installer/16.3/conf/site-options.conf
   Note: vi is an example. Any *nix text editor will work.
2. In the site-options.conf file, comment out these variables:

   USE_EXTERNAL_USER_AUTHENTICATION

   LOGIN_CONFIG_XML_FILE

   MINIMUM_PASSWORD_LENGTH

3. Recreate the runtime environment.
   • ./install.sh -V -r -d /opt/collabnet/teamforge
4. Review the variables you have changed, then save the site-options.conf file.
