Problem

TNT 4.0.0 Installation Guide states that the value for authentication identity is optional but it does not specify what is needed when it is not optional.

Resolution

If customer's LDAP does not allow anonymous bind, then "Authentication Identity" to perform the LDAP bind must be set in the following format: "{USERNAME}@<hostname>".

For example, if I want to connect to Axway's LDAP, then I would specify the "Authentication Identity" parameter as "{USERNAME}@axway.com".

Please note that "{USERNAME}" should not be replaced with any username, just use it as-is.
