ldap-negative-cache-time

Section: authentication
Default Value: 0
Valid Values: 0 to 65536
Changes Take Effect: Immediately


Specifies the time interval, in seconds, during which Configuration Server caches the username and password after unsuccessful authentication of a user. When a user enters incorrect login credentials multiple times, Configuration Server caches only the last invalid password entered for the LDAP user account.

The cache is reset after the time specified by this option elapses. Also, the cache is reset when the Person object is changed or when any option is changed in the authentication or gauth_ldap section of the Configuration Server object.

When set to 0 (the default), this feature is disabled.

Default Value: 0
Valid Values: 0 to 65536
Changes Take Effect: Immediately


Specifies the time interval, in seconds, during which Configuration Server caches the LDAP username and password after successful authentication of a user.

The cache is reset after the time specified by this option elapses. Also, the cache is reset when the Person object is changed or when any option is changed in the authentication or gauth_ldap section of the Configuration Server object.

When set to 0 (the default), this feature is disabled.

authentication-queue-threshold

Section: authentication
Default Value: 1000
Valid Values: 0 or any positive integer
Changes Take Effect: Immediately


Specifies the number of login requests that can be enqueued in the LDAP authentication queue. When the number of login requests in the LDAP queue waiting to be sent to the LDAP server goes above the configured limit, the subsequent login requests are rejected with CFGForcedDisconnect error stating that request to LDAP server failed. Configuration Server will start accepting the LDAP request only after the queue size is reduced by 10% below the configured limit.

When set to 0 (zero), queue length will not be restricted and all the requests are added to the queue. The login requests expire based on the existing policies.
