Subject: Active Directory problem
Hi All,

I have got past a few problems with installation, and have finally got
to the login page, but continually come up with a login failure.  I
have tested my LDAP connection and credentials using an LDAP browser
and they work fine, but I am no expert here.

I have tried a few options by stopping Tomcat, changing the "## LDAP
Server 1 Connection" section of esoe.config and restarting.  Is this
going to pick up my changes?  The current details are:

ldapURL-1=ldap://smstsdc01
ldapServer-1=smstsdc01
ldapServerPort-1=389
baseDN-1=DC=TSDEV,DC=Inside
identifier-1=sAMAccountName
recursive-1=true
disableSSL-1=true
adminUser-1=tsdev\tsadmin
adminPassword-1=neveryoumind

I have tried the "ldapURL-1" with/without port, and "baseDN-1" with/
without "CN=Users".  The default for "identifier-1" in this section is
"uid", but the LDAP browser shows no such property.  I have tried
replacing it with "sAMAccountName", which the LDAP browser shows as
being the account name, but it doesn't work.

During installation I did the following that was slightly different
from the instructions:
- Edited generate_db-mysql to comment out the constraints as they
caused problems with MySQL.
- Ignored the installation step of "Extract spep-shared.tar.gz to your
$TOMCAT/shared/lib directory of the tomcat instance which will run
esoemanager" as the file did not exist.
- I was confused by "Your database itself is already configured,
undertake the following for your environment." as no database had been
created, and the in the next step it was to be used.  In MySql I
manually created the esoe database, after setting the engine to InnoDB
(to fix something).

I am using Windows 2003, Tomcat 5.5, MySql 5.1.30, JRE 6, and the
"current" build of OSOE (which I assume is 0.5.2 or thereabouts).

If anybody can help with the Active Directory integration I would be
very grateful.

This needs to be the server DNS entry does 'nslookup smstsdc01' resolve
in DNS for you?. If not you'll need something like smstsdc01.company.com

> ldapServer-1=smstsdc01
> ldapServerPort-1=389
> baseDN-1=DC=TSDEV,DC=Inside

This needs to be a DN so something like
sAMAccountName=tsadmin,dc=tsdev,dc=inside - please adjust accordingly
for your environment.

sAMAccountName for AD is the best option, you can add the cn=users to
baseDN if you like but get it working without this first would be my
recommendation.

 From memory that is the latest binary build versioning, things have
progressed significantly in SVN head however.

Hopefully the above is of assistance.

Hello Bradley,

Thanks for your quick reply (I went off for a coffee).  Yes, nslookup
does resolve correctly, as shown below.  I have updated adminUser-1 to
"tsadmin,dc=tsdev,dc=inside" or "tsadmin,cn=users,dc=tsdev,dc=inside"
without luck.

I also noticed the following in esoe-authn.log - is the lack of
something at the end a concern?

2009-02-06 09:23:05,765 ERROR esoe.authn - Failed to authenticate
principal tsadmin to underlying authentication mechanism identified by
external ESOE ID of:

Results of nslookup:

C:\Documents and Settings\mblight>nslookup smstsdc01
Server:  smstsdc01.tsdev.inside
Address:  192.168.20.1

Name:    smstsdc01.TSDEV.Inside
Address:  192.168.20.1

Hi
You're still missing the uid= or sAMAccountName= on the dn for you're  
admin user based on the confit you've just provided

I am getting closer!  I put in "adminUser-1=cn=TS
Admin,cn=users,dc=tsdev,dc=inside" and it seems to be progressing, but
it redirects to "http://smstsapp04:8080/signin" which produces a 404.

See above, but also, I remembered something else I did differently to
the guide - when I copied ROOT.war into Tomcat, it would not deploy.
So I stopped Tomcat, moved the existing ROOT folder out, restarted and
then copied it in.  Then it deployed okay, but now I can't go to the
usual Tomcat admin page.

Michael,
Not being able to see the server I am not really sure what additional
suggestions I can make here. The 404 leads me to think that perhaps
you've not deployed the web.war file to your tomcat container.

/signin is published by the ROOT.war file so perhaps this is having an
issue deploying however from your previous emails this seems to not be
the case.

If you'd like to get some more formal support please feel free to
contact me off list (bedd...@intient.com) and we can discuss options.

regards,
Bradley
