Re: [xwiki-users] ldap auth against active directory fails

Could you create a jira issue for that at

http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI ?

Done !

If you use the "new" LDAP authenticator (com.xpn.xwiki.user.impl.LDAP.XWikiLDAPAuthServiceImpl since 1.3M2, see http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Authentication), "userPassword" is olny used when you set xwiki.authentication.ldap.validate_password to 1. Otherwise it tries a simple bind to validate the found LDAP user in case xwiki.authentication.ldap.bind_DN and xwiki.authentication.ldap.bind_pass are not configured to directly use provided user/pass to connect to LDAP server.

Ok putting validate_password to 0 works ! Thanks ! Fabien
