Message from webpage

Hi All!

After the successful install, my colleague tried to log in.

He couldn't use his AD user, because he's got a message:

Please check whether the given base dn is correct.

We are in the same Group in MS AD. If he miss his password, he get an another message:

Could not authenticate to the LDAP server.

What is problem? He can connect with superuser... Smiley Sad

Thanks

Login as super user and reconfigure LDAP server settings.

Hope that will help.

We tried to reconfig LDAP settings, before I wrote here.

We have tried to setup with his actual logon AD server... Same... Smiley Sad

Interesting, If we make authenticate with his user, it seems that "query" has been worked, but not the login! :_|

(Port: 389 , LDAP Limit 6000.)

It seems, the problem origin came from the localized AD group names, with special (hungarrian) characters usage in the AD groups, not from the size of the group of membership counts.

We are testing it...

Problem is because of special Hungarian characters in your Group Name. We have started looking into this. Thanks for letting us know.
