LDAP authentication setup question

[figgyb44]

I just installed deki-wiki last week and played around with it enough to understand many of its features. I do not have much programming experience and was wondering if anyone could show me an example of an LDAP configuration with AD. I looked over the documentation and see all the LDAP details, but I am not sure how to put it together.

Best Regards!

Have you looked at this faq page? http://wiki.opengarden.org/Deki_Wiki/FAQ/User_Management/How_do_I...Integrate_my_users_with_LDAP%2f%2fMS_Ac tive_Directory%3f
It gives plenty of examples for how to integrate with AD and has an example screenshot attached. Are there specific settings you have questions about?

I must have missed that page when searching for LDAP in the documentation. This is what I had found initially: http://wiki.opengarden.org/Deki_Wiki/Authentication/LdapAuthentication

I'll try the link you suggested. If I have any problems, I'll update this post.

Thanks!

I setup AD following the document you linked to. When I try to save the settings it comes back with:

Service KMCDNS reset failed
Array
Service KMCDNS was updated successfully

Any ideas?

Yeah this is related to a known bug dealing with creating new services. Workaround until 1.8.3 is to restart the dekihost process after configuring the service to start it.

Are there any known issues with trying to setup LDAP Authentication with MS Active Directory using digests?

[MaxM]

Although the ldap library we're using -- Novell.Directory.Ldap.dll -- does seem to support SASL and thus perhaps digest authentication, this isn't something that we've looked at. If you're familar with c# and want to take a stab at getting it to work then I'd gladly do what I can to help. Stop by our irc channel on irc.freenode.net #opengarden to chat about it.

MaxM,

Thanks. i'm pretty familiar with it...in fact I was just working on an extension for db access based off of the existing MySQL extension. I'll have to try stopping by the IRC channel tomorrow...need to get the ok from my manager to do that :P Corporate policies and all....

[figgyb44]

I'm still getting the array error even after restarting the dekihost process. Any Ideas?

[MaxM]

Does the service show up in the list (in control panel/service management) and does it show up on the login screen?

If so, it likely started fine. Try logging in with it. If it doesn't work, try the troubleshooting steps provided by the above linked faq/howto page.
