LD 6.4 Active Directory integration

[kbrutlag]

I've just installed a trial for 6.4 and I'm attempting to get Active Directory integration working. I have all the information entered in the LDAP fields, and have a successful test, then I set it as enabled. I waited a couple of hours and I'm not able to search or see any users. I have rebooted the server in hopes that would trigger something but no luck as yet.

I'm I missing something? The documentation is very sparse.
Thank you

In LogicalDOC 6.4 there is no more a scheduled task for automatic import of Active Directory/LDAP users.

If you have configured in your LogicalDOC the connection to Active Directory / LDAP at this point you can proceed in two ways:

1) you can import manually the users you want to enable in your LogicalDOC
open the tab Browser (in Administration -> Security->External Authentication)
then perform a search against users and using the right mouse click import the user you located
See the mouse Pointer in the image attached

2) you can simply login in LogicalDOC using the credentials (username/password) of your user in the authentication system (AD or LDAP)

I've tried both methods with no success.

Our users reside in separate OU's under a different OU than Users
i.e.
toplevel.com
company
department
{user accounts}
department
{user accounts}

I've tried modifying the User base node to various levels, but none seem to return user accounts. In other applications, I've used the toplevel domain for resolution. Tried that but lost the connection.

Thank you

I may have found something. Most of our user names contain an underscore (user_name), but another I tested that did not have it returned a value.

Could you verify this is the issue?

Thank you

I have it working!!!

Needed to modify the 'Users base node:' LDAP string. Removed the CN and replaced with an OU pointing to the company location level. Now all user names are returning.

I am trying to integrate LDAP with logicaldoc 6.4 community edition web application but i am not able to logged in through LDAP username and password.It saying every time access denied.
When i checked the dms log ,i could see two line trace i.e
13.06.2012 16:44:32,605 WARN (com.logicaldoc.ldap.model.LDAPAuthentication: 70) -- User named 'naveenb' not found
13.06.2012 16:44:32,610 WARN (com.logicaldoc.web.service.SecurityServiceImpl: 184) -- User naveenb is not valid

I have installed Micrsoft Active Directory in my local system with the following LDAP config parameters below.
ldap.anon=false
ldap.authentication=basic
ldap.defaultLanguage=en
ldap.enabled=true
#ldap.groupBase=ou=groups,ou=ABC.XYZ Users
#ldap.groupClass=groupOfNames
#ldap.groupIdentiferAttribute=cn
ldap.logonAttribute=sAMAccountName
ldap.pagesize=100
ldap.password=*********
ldap.realm=localhost

ldap.userBase=ou=ABC.XYZ Users,ou=Noida Users,dc=ABC,dc=XYZ,dc=com

Please suggest me if anyone has done same integration and let me know if missed anything that is why not able get records from LDAP.

Hi kbrutlag,

Please, what does your Users base node string look like in the end. I am having the same problem with me needing to get users from OUs and CNs.

e.g.
CN=dave kruz,OU=IT Dept,DC=tsaboingroup,DC=com and
CN=steve tyler,OU=Users,DC=tsaboingroup,DC=com

How do I resolve this.

Thank you very much,

Well, as users base node you can give both roots in this way:

OU=IT Dept,DC=tsaboingroup,DC=com; OU=Users,DC=tsaboingroup,DC=com

Another solution is to use a single root node:
DC=tsaboingroup,DC=com

LogicalDOC will search all users inside every provided users nodes at every nesting level.

car031,

Thanks a lot, the first solution worked but the second solution didn't work.

Thanks.
