[xwiki-users] ldap-integration / Active Directory / sAMAcountName
Hello xwiki users, I have to integrate with an microsoft active directory server. The ldap-interface of xwiki (as in xwiki.cfg) works by default with the cn (the canonical name), i.e. "Pierre Dalluege". No one can really put his full name into the login name field, everyone wants to put the logon name, which is in this case "p.dalluege". This information is placed in the field "sAMAccountName". Other software packages require an account for "ldap log on and searches" and in the second step the look for the "sAMAccountName" and fill the field cn, email and others. Is there anyone to help? At least any ideas? Thanks a lot in advance, best regards Pierre
Hi, Did you looked at http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/LDAPAuthenticationUseCas... ? This should work very well for Active Directory most of the time AFAIK. On Sun, Aug 15, 2010 at 23:53, Dalluege, Pierre (extern) <[email protected]> wrote:

Hi Tom, I reviewed the faq in respect to ldap, the link you provided had the missing information, pretty cool, thank you very much! In respect to user name "p.dalluege" gets to "pdalluege", probably because it will be used for page names and links?

Yep that's it, dot is not yet fully supported in pages names (but will soon I hope, it's actually fully supported in database and deepest core but lost of applications needed to be modified to properly support anything in pages names) so LDAP authenticator "clean" the user id.
Best regards
