  3. Right-click ADAM ADSI Edit and select Connect to, which opens the Connections Setting dialog.
  4. In the Connections Setting dialog:
    1. Enter a name in the Connection name field. This example uses My Connection.
    2. Select localhost in the Server name field.
    3. Enter a free port number in the Port field. This example uses port 390.
    4. Select Distinguished name (DN) or naming context and enter O=userstore in the field.
