[Hyperic-hq-discuss] How to configure Hyperic to use Active Directory for LDAP Authentication

[Murray B. <hq-...@hy...>]

Can someone out there please help me to configure Hyperic to accept logins via AD authentication. I have copied the configuration from our Liferay portal implementation where it works okay.

The configuration I have in place looks like this:

   Use LDAP Authentication: Yes
   URL: ldaps://ntsyddc04.pc.internal.macquarie.com
   SSL: Yes
   Username: cn=SRVC_WEBLOGIC_ADMIN,ou=system		
   Password: ********
   Search Base: OU=Users_MIG,OU=Syd,DC=pc,DC=internal,DC=macquarie,DC=com	
   Search Filter: 	
   Login Property: cn

It seems to get to AD okay as if I enter a valid userid with a bad password I get the message:
   2007-03-19 11:03:10,446 INFO  [com.hyperic.hq.auth.server.LdapLoginModule] Failed to validate 
   password: [LDAP: error code 49 - 80090308: LdapErr: DSID-0C090334, comment:
   AcceptSecurityContext error, data 52e, vece]
in the Hyperic log file. However when I then enter the correct password I get the message:
   2007-03-19 11:03:10,062 INFO  [STDOUT] username from shared state is null

It looks like the mapping from the AD username to the Hyperic username is not working. So I assume that I have the "Login Property" wrong but cannot see what it should be. In Liferay I have this coded as "(cn=@user_id@)" so I know that "cn" is the correct AD field.

Thanks . . . Murray
