LDAP integration

I am new at ldap... We are using Novell and Active Directory

Looking at the active directory we have

prattcc.local >> PCC >> Pratt >>then the users are listed

I am not sure how to setup the base dn for the ldap module.

eDirectory

We don't use AD but Novell's eDirectory. Our Base DN field reads: ou=users,o=NameOfOurOrganisation

HTH

Full LDAP path

xmacinfo - September 7, 2007 - 15:47

We were able to link to the Users resources by linking to the full LDAP path:

ou=Users,ou=location,dc=company,dc=com

I guess you should use for your organisation Base DN:

ou=Users,ou=Pratt,ou=PCC,dc=prattcc,dc=local

tried that

Still not having any luck, however I am not positive that our LDAP is configured correctly

DN for non-anonymous search

Did you set up a non-anonymous DN?

Most corporate LDAP do not allow anonymous searches.

Try using Softserra free LDAP Browser to browse your directory. If you do not see all the LDAP elements, you will need to add a special user that have permission to browse the directory.

Once I was able to browse the directory with the LDAP browser, I used the same non-anonymous user in the LDAP module and everything worked fine.
