# Retrieve Groups from Netware

This section describes how to configure OmniGroupServer to retrieve user and group information for Netware, through LDAP.

To retrieve security information from Netware using LDAP

1. Open the OmniGroupServer configuration file.

2. In the `[Repositories]` section, create a repository to store the Netware groups. For example:

       [Repositories]
       Number=1
       0=NetwareLDAP

3. Create a section to contain the task details and set the following configuration parameters:

   `GroupServerLibrary` | The path (including the file name) to the library file that allows the group server to access the repository. Use the LDAP group server library, `ogs_ldap`.
   `LDAPServer` | The host name or IP address of the machine that hosts the LDAP directory.
   `LDAPType` | The type of LDAP server (for Netware/Novell eDirectory, set this parameter to `NED`).
   `LDAPPort` | The port to use to access the LDAP directory.
   `LDAPBase` | The distinguished name of the search base.
   `LDAPUsername` | The user to use to access the directory.
   `LDAPPassword` | The password to use to access the directory. Micro Focus recommends that you encrypt the password before adding it to the configuration file. For information about how to encrypt passwords, see Encrypt Passwords.

   For example:

       [NetwareLDAP]
       GroupServerLibrary=ogs_ldap
       LDAPServer=myLDAPserver
       LDAPType=NED
       LDAPPort=389
       LDAPBase=O=org
       LDAPUsername=cn=admin,o=org
       LDAPPassword=passw0rd

   For a complete list of configuration parameters that you can use to configure the task, refer to the OmniGroupServer Reference.

4. Save and close the OmniGroupServer configuration file.
