LDAP search base

[ahasan]

I am using Zimbra LDAP and want to authenticate the users of VidyoPortal from it. I am having problems setting the search base. I took a capture on my firewall, where I can see the error object not found. The initial authentication of Bind DN and Bind Password is successful, but when I try a test authentication it says object not found. My user is created in the domain "i2cinc.com"

The setting that I am using are shown in the screen shot.

Can someone please suggest what should be written in the search base??

I have changed the Search base and the filter according to the above link. But still no luck...

I cannot find anything in LDAP logs of zimbra. I am pretty sure the problem is with the search base or filter.

Hi,

try with this

dc=i2cinc,dc=com

you have to write 'dc' lowercase.

Yes, I tried lower case. Didn't work either...

I tried to check the LDAP logs. I have gone through zimbra.log, audit.log and mailbox.log. I couldn't find any entry in any of these logs.

Can you tell me when an LDAP authentication fails where is it logged?

[gvillari]

Check the mailbox.log and the audit.log files if log something.

Also specify the ldap port in the URI:

ldap://mail.i2cinc.com:389

Are the ldap server achievable on 389 port?

Yes it is connecting to the ldap server. The VidyoPortal that i am trying to integrate with LDAP uses the Bind DN and Bind Password to authenticate to ldap server which is successful. Then a new window asks fro a test user authentication. When I enter my user 'ahasan' and my password, it fails, as it cannot find ahasan. The screen shot shows the capture I took on the firewall.

Try with scope=subtree.

I am trying all three scopes with every filter and search template.
Not working...
