Hi,

I have some problems with AD 5.0.2 configuration. I just updated the DNN from 4.5.1 to 5.1.4 and I’ve installed AD 5.0.2. When I setup my AD i get the error:

Accessing Global Catalog: OK
Checking Root Domain: FAIL
Accessing LDAP: OK
Find all domains in network: 1 Domain(s): one.local (ONE)

and the settings i try to save are :

Enabled?: true

Hide Login Controls?: true

Authentication Type: Secure

Root Domain: one.local (or DC=one,DC=local)

User Name: ONE\user

Before the update those settings worked. Now if a user try to login and is not in the DNN users DB table will not login. I'm new at AD interface, the big problem is that i inherit the administration of this platform form someone how’s not available any more. And I had to do the update do to some business requirement.

 

Thank you

1. One of your logon controls has to be visible. Personally, I disable the standard authentication on portals that don't need it, and make sure the AD login control is not hidden. If you have your domain set right in the menu, they can then log in with their AD account. 2. Two things: a: Make sure that IE has that website setup as either an Intranet or Trusted site. b: Make sure you put in the allowed IP ranges in the AD setup menu. 3. It is supposed to compare the password hash of the entered password against the associated AD account. If they are correct, it will update the associated local DNN account, or create one if it doesn't exist.

The site is internal and external used. The only Authentication Type that gives me a working LDAP check is Secure. I've tried impersonation but i get the same result. AD won't work if i select Windows Login (using DOMAIN\user or user gets the same result). I found out that it might be an AD problem. The company has 5 AD databases (domains) and the server that hosts DNN has his own AD/DOMAIN (one2.local) but the users are in other domain/ad (one.local). So i think that my problem comes from there. Accessing Global Catalog: OK Checking Root Domain: FAIL Accessing LDAP: OK Find all domains in network: 1 Domain(s): one2.local (ONE2) What files do i need to modify so i can make the connection manually (or try)? Because after some digging i found out that before the update that was the trick done to make AD connection work. Thank you
