hi,

i'm trying to get LDAP working with my Windows 200 domain and have made some progress but am still getting this error

Warning: ldap_search() [function.ldap-search]: Search: Bad search filter in /var/www/html/lib/ldap.php on line 432
LDAP Search Error: Unable to find users DN

running CactiEZ 0.8.7c




my settings as follows:
Server: myserver fqdn (can ping this from cacti shell)
Port Standard: 389
Protocol Version: (tried version 2 and 3)
Encryption: None
Referrals: Disabled
Mode: Specific Searching (all other options fail with can't connect to LDAP)
Distinguished Name (DN): "<username>@domainname.com" - should need this anyway
Search Base: "OU=MyOU,OU=MyOU1,OU=MyOU2,OU=MyOU3,DC=domainname,DC=com"
Search Filter: "(&(objectclass=user)(objectcategory=user)(userPrincipalName=<username>*))"
Search Distingished Name (DN): tried the following
username
CN=acccountname,OU=MyOU,OU=MyOU2,DC=domain,DC=com
username@domainname.com - had seen post saying to use primay suffix name for user
Search Password: password


Have seen a post saying that quote was left out of line in ldap.php file

function cacti_ldap_search_dn($username,$ldap_dn
have changed to
function cacti_ldap_search_dn($username ="",$ldap_dn

still made no difference.

I have tried about every combination of values for the different fields i need to fill in and i think they should be fine as i have seen many error messages before this relating to not connecting to LDAP and i have got past these.
Is there any bug still in the script that is stopping this from working?

this is the output of my cacti log:

cat /var/www/html/log/cacti.log | grep LDAP
08/09/2009 01:23:44 PM - AUTH LDAP_SEARCH: Unable to find users DN
08/09/2009 01:23:44 PM - AUTH LOGIN: LDAP Error: Unable to find users DN

hoping someone has came across this before.

thanks

When you say Windows 200(0) domain, do you mean running cacti on a Windows 2K box and trying to bind it to an OpenLDAP server?

UPDATE

Hope this link helps, figured you were authing to AD and not LDAP itself.

yes i'm trying to connect to a windows 2000 domain controller from my cacti box running freebsd (or whatever flavour the cactiEZ iso comes with).
i seen that post and although it helped me out somewhat it hasn't solved my main error.
i've checked the logs of my w2k dc and the attempt is getting there so it must be something to do with reading the search base.
my secuirty logs show:
