2. Click Repositories (under 'Repository Settings').
3. Click the name of the repository (in the 'Name' column).

4. Click Permissions in the left-hand panel. See the screenshot below.

   Repository defaults	Select Use repository defaults to have access to this repository controlled by the default permission settings for all repositories.

Configuring an LDAP restriction

If the LDAP Authentication type is configured in your instance, you can optionally restrict a repository based on an LDAP query.

When an LDAP Restriction is configured for a repository, then the logic to determine whether you can read from a repository is:

Anon access is allowed:
      YES
      Logged in AND...
        all logged in users are allowed & no LDAP Restriction defined?
        YES
        authorised by LDAP Restriction?
        YES
        authorised by group membership?
        YES
      Otherwise:
      NO

See also LDAP authentication.
