Hello,

I'm currently having issues getting the LDAP authentication to work from the alfresco login screen. I have successfully got alfresco to sync all user accounts, groups, and members of the groups. The issue i'm having is i'm unable to use those ldap accounts to login to the gui using the ldap password. It seems to me that the ldap has sync'ed to alfresco. But for some reason the passwords have not. I'm assuming it is sending the request to the server, which is should be. But is not authenticating the users.

My current config…

### LDAP ###
authentication.chain=alfrescoNtlm1:alfrescoNtlm,ldap1:ldap
#
alfrescoNtlm1
ntlm.authentication.sso.enabled=false
alfresco.authentication.authenticateCIFS=true
#
ldap1
ldap.authentication.active=true
ldap.synchronization.active=true
ldap.authentication.allowGuestLogin=false
ldap.authentication.userNameFormat=%s@emart.com
ldap.authentication.java.naming.provider.url=ldap://10.1.1.1:389
ldap.authentication.defaultAdministratorUserNames=Administrator,alfresco
ldap.synchronization.java.naming.security.principal=CN=LDAPSync1,o=emart
ldap.synchronization.java.naming.security.credentials=emart
ldap.synchronization.groupSearchBase=o=emart
ldap.synchronization.userSearchBase=o=emart
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

So my problem is alfresco is syncing users and groups. Just not authenticating passwords properly.

Environment:
Version: Community - v4.0.0 (b 3835)
SuSE Enterprise Linux
Novell eDirectory LDAP
