How to Configure:

Prior to Artifactory version 7.71.x
Add the following lines, with the amount adjusted for your use case to the

$JFROG_HOME/artifactory/var/etc/artifactory/artifactory.system.properties file: 
(Please note that the value for these properties is to be set in milliseconds.)
artifactory.security.ldap.socket.timeoutMillis=10000 
artifactory.security.ldap.connect.timeoutMillis=10000

These modifications require Artifactory restart to take effect.

After Artifactory Version  7.71.x
Changes are now made under the Access microservice.

1. Create a copy of the access.config.latest.yml found here:

   $JFROG_HOME/artifactory/var/etc/access

2. Rename it access.config.import.yml
3. Add the following properties (Full reference here or in the access.config.template.yml ):

security:
  authentication:
    ldap:
      connect-timeout-millis: 10000
      read-timeout-millis: 15000
