Click Resources > LDAP Servers.
Select the server connection you want to delete:

    The actions menu appears.
  2. Click Delete.
- To delete multiple server connections:
  1. In the table, select the check box for each server connection you want to delete.
    
    The available actions appear at the top of the table.
