Ldap authentication failing

[Shadowtech87]

I have gotten the Data Collector for LDAP setup and imported my AD users in the system as basic portal users.

I am now trying to use the LDAP authentication. Every time i try to log in i get an error that the "user is not found in LDAP."

I have updated the authent-ldap settings in the config editor, and right now just trying to get it to work on regular LDAP. Will try to tackle LDAPS next.

'authent-ldap' => array (
    'host' => '172.X.X.X',
    'port' => 389,
    'default_user' => '',
    'default_pwd' => '',
    'base_dn' => 'DC=DOMAIN_NAME,DC=org',
    'user_query' => '(SamAccountName=%1$s)',
    'options' => array (
      17 => 3,
      8 => 0,
    ),
    'start_tls' => false,
    'debug' => true,
    'servers' => array (
    ),
),

Both my iTop server - ubunutu 20.04 and the AD DC are on the same vlan and i have verified that the domain controller is not blocking anything inbound right now from this server.

If i use powershell on the DC it returns the user.
Get-ADUser -LDAPFilter '(samaccountname=USERNAME)'

Any ideas on where to look. I'll admit I am a linux newbie so perhaps i overlooked something basic.

after adding that its working
