# BaseDN

The distinguished name (DN) that IDOL Server uses to access the group object when you authenticate with an LDAP security repository, and you use GroupDN to specify a group that the user must belong to.

By default, IDOL Server uses the security details of the user who is logging on to the LDAP server to retrieve details stored in the group that you specify with GroupDN. You must set `BaseDN` if the user does not have permission to retrieve the details in the group object.

If you have set KeyUserName, IDOL Server also uses the `BaseDN` user to bind to the LDAP server and search for a user. In this case, you must set `BaseDN` if the LDAP server does not allow anonymous binding.

If you set `BaseDN`, you must specify a BaseDNPassword.
