use DN/password......yes

Search string: adAutoComplete

Click Test and get next error:

Welcome to the forums

Are you sure the binding ID is correct ?

Tank's for reply.

What do you mean "binding ID" ? The IP address of domain controller is correct. Account for access to active directory is my account ((DN) username and password is correct 100%). What else can I specify incorrect?
There is network access from Zimbra to the DC on necessary port. (checked by telnet).

Default LDAP: Binding DN

In LDAP parlance, a "binding ID", or the bind DN (distinguished name) is effectively the account name you're using to connect to the LDAP service.

A good book on LDAP for beginner's is O'Reilly's LDAP System Administration (LDAP System Administration | O'Reilly Media)

Thumbs up

Uxbot, Ryan Frantz, thank you very much. The problem actually was in incorrect DN. I used only CN=username, but need CN=username,OU=ObjectUnit,DC=domain,DC=com. The problem is solved.
