LDAP

Essentially another database, LDAP can be managed by the SIS based on content within the SIS database. LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol) is commonly used for authentication, as well as directory information.

The configuration for LDAP is a combination of information about the LDAP server, and service-specific descriptions for the top-level structure of the LDAP database:

LDAP Server
LDAP Services
Accounts
Authentication and passwords

IMAP

Integration with the Cyrus IMAP server is supported in combination with LDAP:

IMAP Server
IMAP Account maintenance

RSS

Through the News Item and Campus News form, the SIS generates an RSS feed that can be used by any RSS 2.0 compatible news reader.
