Assuming you're using the built-in (and not the JAAS) LDAP authentication system, <span>idp.pool.LDAP.validatePeriod, <span>idp.pool.LDAP.validatePeriodically, and <span>idp.pool.LDAP.validateOnCheckout are probably what you're looking for.</span></span></span></p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p><span><span><span></span></span></span>Now, that said, is it wise? Questionable. In my environment (for example) I actually had to increase the frequency of validation, because a load balancer we have in front of our AD environment was closing out sessions.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Log filtering is probably just a better strategy here.<br>
