Unable to find user list in Active Directory Authenticator

Hi all,
I am using weblogic 10.3 and want to configure ActiveDirectory Authenticator for my weblogic application. We have one managed srever under admin server . I have configured a Active Directory Authenticator named "ADAuthenticator" and made following changes as per the below values:
I set the control flag to "OPTIONAL" .
Security Realms-->myrealm-->Providers-->ADAuthenticator-->Provider Specific
UserName Attribute : ServiceBEA
Principal : ServiceBEA
Host : xxxxxx
User Search Scope : subtree
Group From Name Filter : (&(ServiceBEA=%g)(objectclass=group))
Credential : xxxxxx
Confirm Credential : xxxxxx
User From Name Filter : (&(ServiceBEA=%u)(objectclass=user))
Static Group Name Attribute : ServiceBEA
User Base DN : values provided as per requirement
Port : 389
User Object Class : user
Use Retrieved User Name as Principal : checked
Group Base DN : same values as per User Base DN
Static Group Object Class : group
Group Membership Searching : unlimited
Max Group Membership Search Level : 0
These are my AD settings. After doing this i click on save and then activate changes and then restarted the admin server.
But the problem is when i login to weblogic console to check the user list under "User and Group" i am unble to find any Active Directory users.
I don't know where i made the mistake. Can some make me out of this trouble.
Any help is highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance !

Hi Sean,
Actually we have already a Active Directory with username "ServiceBEA" in our windows server. So i used this "ServiceBEA" as UserName Attribute in weblogic console while creating a Active Directory Authenticator.
You mean to say that we should go for "sAMAccountName" or what? If that is the case then i have also tested with following values, but still no luck.
UserName Attribute : sAMAccountName
Principal : ServiceBEA
Host : xxxxxx
User Search Scope : subtree
Group From Name Filter : (&(sAMAccountName=%g)(objectclass=group))
Credential : xxxxxx
Confirm Credential : xxxxxx
User From Name Filter : (&(sAMAccountName=%u)(objectclass=user))
Static Group Name Attribute : sAMAccountName
User Base DN : values provided as per requirement
Port : 389
User Object Class : user
Use Retrieved User Name as Principal : checked
Group Base DN : same values as per User Base DN
Static Group Object Class : group
Group Membership Searching : unlimited
Max Group Membership Search Level : 0
Please advise what to be place in case of User Name Attribute.
Any help is highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance !

Weblogic with Active Directory Authentication provider problem: DN for user ....: null

I have a java application (SSO via SAML2) that uses Weblogic as a Identity Service Provider. All works well using users created directly in Weblogic. However, I need to add support for Active Directory. So, as per documentation:
- I defined an Active Directory Authentication provider
- changed it's order in the Authentication Providers list so that it comes first
- set the control flag to SUFFICIENT and configured the Provider Specific; here's the concerned part in config.xml:
<sec:authentication-provider xsi:type="wls:active-directory-authenticatorType">
        <sec:name>MyOwnADAuthenticator</sec:name>
        <sec:control-flag>SUFFICIENT</sec:control-flag>
        <wls:propagate-cause-for-login-exception>true</wls:propagate-cause-for-login-exception>
        <wls:host>10.20.150.4</wls:host>
        <wls:port>5000</wls:port>
        <wls:ssl-enabled>false</wls:ssl-enabled>
        <wls:principal>CN=tadmin,CN=wl,DC=at,DC=com</wls:principal>
        <wls:user-base-dn>CN=wl,DC=at,DC=com</wls:user-base-dn>
        <wls:credential-encrypted>{AES}deleted</wls:credential-encrypted>
        <wls:cache-enabled>false</wls:cache-enabled>
        <wls:group-base-dn>CN=wl,DC=at,DC=com</wls:group-base-dn>
</sec:authentication-provider>
I configured a AD LDS instance(Active Directory Lightweight Directory Services) on a Windows Server 2008 R2. I created users and one admin user "tadmin" which was added to Administrators members. I also made sure to set msDS-UserAccountDisabled property to FALSE.
After restarting Weblogic I can see that the AD LDS's users and groups are correctly fetched in Weblogic. But, when I try to connect with my application, using Username:tadmin and Password:<...> it does not work.
Here's what I see in the log file:
<BEA-000000> <LDAP Atn Login username: tadmin>
<BEA-000000> <authenticate user:tadmin>
<BEA-000000> <getConnection return conn:LDAPConnection {ldaps://10.20.150.4:5000 ldapVersion:3 bindDN:"CN=tadmin,CN=wl,DC=at,DC=com"}>
<BEA-000000> <getDNForUser search("CN=wl,DC=at,DC=com", "(&(&(cn=tadmin)(objectclass=user))(!(userAccountControl:1.2.840.113556.1.4.803:=2)))", base DN & below)>
<BEA-000000> <DN for user tadmin: null>
<BEA-000000> <returnConnection conn:LDAPConnection {ldaps://10.20.150.4:5000 ldapVersion:3 bindDN:"CN=tadmin,CN=wl,DC=at,DC=com"}>
<BEA-000000> <getConnection return conn:LDAPConnection {ldaps://10.20.150.4:5000 ldapVersion:3 bindDN:"CN=tadmin,CN=wl,DC=at,DC=com"}>

<BEA-000000> <DN for user tadmin: null>
<BEA-000000> <returnConnection conn:LDAPConnection {ldaps://10.20.150.4:5000 ldapVersion:3 bindDN:"CN=tadmin,CN=wl,DC=at,DC=com"}>
<BEA-000000> <javax.security.auth.login.FailedLoginException: [Security:090302]Authentication Failed: User tadmin denied

at com.bea.common.security.internal.service.LoginModuleWrapper$1.run(LoginModuleWrapper.java:110)
So, I tried to look why do I have: <DN for user tadmin: null>. Using Apache Directory Studio I reproduced the ldap search request used in Weblogic and, sure enough, I get no results. But, changing the filter to only "(&(cn=tadmin)(objectclass=user))" (NOTICE, no userAccountControl), it works; here's the result from Apache Directory Studio:
#!SEARCH REQUEST (145) OK
#!CONNECTION ldap://10.20.150.4:5000
#!DATE 2014-01-23T14:52:09.324
# LDAP URL     : ldap://10.20.150.4:5000/CN=wl,DC=at,DC=com?objectClass?sub?(&(cn=tadmin)(objectclass=user))
# command line : ldapsearch -H ldap://10.20.150.4:5000 -x -D "[email protected]" -W -b "CN=wl,DC=at,DC=com" -s sub -a always -z 1000 "(&(cn=tadmin)(objectclass=user))" "objectClass"
# baseObject   : CN=wl,DC=at,DC=com

# sizeLimit    : 1000
# timeLimit    : 0

# attributes   : objectClass
#!SEARCH RESULT DONE (145) OK
#!CONNECTION ldap://10.20.150.4:5000
#!DATE 2014-01-23T14:52:09.356
# numEntries : 1
(the "[email protected]" is defined as userPrincipalName in the tadmin user on AD LDS)
As you can see, "# numEntries : 1" (and I can see as result the entry "CN=tadmin,CN=wl,DC=at,DC=com" in Apache Directory Studio's interface); if I add the userAccountControl filter I get 0.
I've read that the AD LDS does not use userAccountControl but "uses several individual attributes to hold the information that is contained in the flags of the userAccountControl attribute"; among those attributes is msDS-UserAccountDisabled which, as I said, I already set to FALSE.
So, my question is, how do I make it work? Why do I have "<DN for user tadmin: null>" ? Is it the userAccountControl ? If it is, do I need to do some other configuration on my AD LDS ? Or, how can I get rid of the userAccountControl filter in Weblogic?
I didn't seem to find it in config files or in the interface: I only have "User From Name Filter: (&(cn=%u)(objectclass=user))", there's no userAccountControl.
Another difference I noticed is that, even though in Weblogic I have set ssl-enabled flag to false, in the logs I see ldaps and not ldap ( I'm not looking to setup something production-ready and I don't want SSL for the moment ).
Here are some other things I tried but did not change anything:
- the other "msDS-" attributes were not set so I tried initializing them to some value
- I tried other users defined in AD LDS, not tadmin
- in Weblogic I added users that were imported from AD LDS in Roles and Policies> Realm Roles > Global Roles > Roles > Admin
- I removed all userAccountControl occurrences that I found in xml files in Weblogic (schema.ms.xml, schema.msad2003.xml)
Any thoughts?
Thanks.

I managed to narrow it down: the AD LDS does not support the userAccountControl.
Anyone knows how I can configure my Active Directory Authentication Provider in Weblogic so that it does not implicitly use userAccountControl as filter?
<BEA-000000> <getDNForUser search("CN=wl,DC=at,DC=com", "(&(&(cn=tadmin)(objectclass=user))(!(userAccountControl:1.2.840.113556.1.4.803:=2)))", base DN & below)>

User profiles from Active directory when loggedin then userdisplay, useredit shows blank white screen in SharePoint 2013

User profiles from Active directory when loggedin then userdisplay, useredit shows blank white screen in SharePoint 2013
I can login with the these AD users and AD direct import is working just fine. We are not using UPS.
With admin user when I click on the user it shows up proper data. But when I login with the same user it does not show me userdisplay/useredit and shows blank data. Also another strange thing is when I add new item in list with these AD users created by
modified by is blank and its really strange. I checked user information list, tried to rerun user sync with direct AD import option but no success.
MCTS Sharepoint 2010, MCAD dotnet, MCPDEA, SharePoint Lead

Hi Amit,
According to your description, my understanding is that the page is blank when the use accessed /_layouts/15/userdisp.aspx and the created by field was blank when the user created a new list item in SharePoint 2013.
I tested the same scenario per your post, however I cannot reproduce your issue.
For troubleshooting this issue, I recommend to verify the things below:
Check the permission of the user in the corresponding site collection to see if he can access /_layouts/15/userdisp.aspx.
Delete the user from AD and SharePoint, then re-add the user to AD and grant proper permission to the user in SharePoint to see if the issue still occurs.
Did this issue occur with all the users? Add a new user in AD and test the same scenario.
Best regards.
Thanks

How can I authenticate a User In Windows Active Directory?

I need to authenticate a user in Windows Active Directory, but I found use the code below will return true if the user name and password are both correct and false if one of them is wrong. But when I input a user name which is not exist in Active Driectory with a blank password, it will also return true. What shall I do? Ask every user must input a password withnot blank?
Please give me some help to solve this problem. Thanks a lot.
Code:

boolean isValid = false;
try {
this.setEnvironmentProperties();
String domainName = AuthenticateResources.getString("mydomain.com");
//set the name of domain with the user name

This is usually a problem if Anonymous Binding is enabled. I have faced this in other Directory Servers, but I am not familiar with Active Directory.
I think by default Active Directory disables Anonymous Binding, but you may want to check.

Is it possible to map a Sponsor Group in Cisco ISE to a user group in Active Directory, through a RADIUS server?

Hi!!
We are working on a mapping between a Sponsor Group in Cisco ISE and a user group in Active Directory....but the client wants the mapping to be through a RADIUS SERVER, for avoiding ISE querying directly the Active Directory.
I know it is possible to use a RADIUS SERVER as an external identity source for ISE.....but, is it possible to use this RADIUS SERVER for this sponsor group handling?
Thanks and regards!!

Yes It is possible to map Sponser group to user group in AD and if you want to know how to do please open the below link and go to Mapping Active Directory Groups to Sponsor Groups heading.

How to transfer user accounts from Active Directory to Open Directory

Please help me , want to tranfer user accounts from Active Directory (Windows server 2012 ) to Open Directory (OS X server 10..2.9)

Hi,
Go to the advanced administration for the OSX Server:
https://help.apple.com/advancedserveradmin/mac/3.1/#apd6D7FE39D-32AA-400C-91E1-5 0ABC15655C8
This pretty easy way of connecting your server to the Windows server should give AD users access to OD services. That will be a good start.
Read up on this as well:

Do you want to import them all or just the Mac users?
Goodluck!

Is it possible to switch from Office 365 online user management to Active Directory after Exchange online migration?

If we utilize the Cutover method to migrate from on-premise Exchange (2007) to Office 365, which to my understanding will hand over user management/authentication to Office 365 online during the process, is possible to later switch from Office 365 user management
to Active Directory (synced to a future local domain, or even possibly via AD federation single sign-on)? If so, how difficult is this process and is there any documentation available?
Asking this because the organization I'm working for plans to upgrade (re-do actually) its entire infrastructure. There will be a completely brand new domain/AD set up that's totally unrelated to the old one. At the same time, we also plan to migrate
all emails (previously hosted locally on Exchange 2007) to Office 365 and get rid of local exchange. Now because we will set up new domain, we do not want to carry over the older AD to the cloud, hence we will not use the "Staged Migration".
So the plan is to to use "Cutover" migration first, which means all authentications will become Office 365 managed. That's fine for now. But later, after we set up our new domain and AD controller etc, we'd like to have Exchange Online switch back
to syncing with our new on-premise AD. We'd also like to consider the AD Federation Services if it's not too complicated to set up.
Your advice on this would be greatly appreciated!

In principle, you cannot sync back from the cloud AD to the on-prem, yet. But you can take advantage of the soft-matching mechanism once you have the new AD in place:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2641663
Be careful though, as the moment you turn on Dirsync, all the matching users in the cloud will have their attributes overwritten. A very good idea is to do an 'export' of the cloud AD first, using the WAAD module for PowerShell and the Get-MsolUser cmdlets,
which you can then use to compare or import data in the new on-prem AD. Some links:

Disable user account on Active Directory??

I sync user account from iPlanet DS to Active Directory through Meta Directory. If I disable user account on iPlanet DS, can meta directory disable the user account on Active Directory Server?

AD has an attribute called userAccountControl. This attribute has a value of 512 when an AD account is active and 546 when it has been disabled. I flow a constructed attribute called userAccountControl with two rules, one for enable and one for disable. The selection criteria for the enable/disable rule is based upon a change in employee status. For example, (%mv.employeestatus%==T). Another way to do this would be a single attribute constructrion rule that calls an external script (written in Perl) that accounts for multiple conditions and then enables/disables the AD account accordingly. In the attribute flow rule, you flow the constructed attribute userAccountControl to mdsAdUserAccountControl (assuming an AD-Specific schema setting in the AD connector).

BO XI 3.1 : Active Directory Authentication failed to get the Active Directory groups

Dear all
        In our environment, there are 2 domain (domain A and B); it works well all the time. Today, all the user belong to domain A are not logi n; for user in domain B, all of them can log in but BO server response is very slowly. and there is error message popup when opening Webi report for domain B user. Below are the error message:
       " Active Directory Authentication failed to get the Active Directory groups for the account with ID:XXXX; pls make sure this account is valid and belongs to an accessible domain"
      Anyone has encountered similar issue?
   BO version: BO XI 3.1 SP5
   Authenticate: Windows AD
Thanks and Regards

Please get in touch with your AD team and verify if there are any changes applied to the domain controller and there are no network issues.
Also since this is a multi domain, make sure you have 2 way transitive forest trust as mentioned in SAP Note : 1323391 and FQDN for Directory servers are maintained in registry as per 1199995

Active Directory Authentication, AFP Home Folders in the wrong place!

Hi,
I've had this problem off and on... that is, it comes and goes, so I'm not really able to effectively troubleshoot it. My setup is this:
-Xserve G5, Mac OS X Server 10.4.7
-OD Master bound to AD for authentication
-Hosts AFP and SMB shares, all stored on Xserve RAID
On the RAID, I have a folder called Users (/Volumes/XserveRAID/Users) that is shared via AFP. The system Users folder (/Users) is not shared. In fact, nothing at all on the root drive is shared. All share points are on /Volumes/XserveRAID/. All Mac users' home directory profiles are pointed to \\servername\Users\username (in Active Directory Users and Computers application on our domain controller). Their home directories mount automatically when they log into their client machines (also bound to AD).
The problem is this; at seemingly random times, a user's home folder will all of a sudden be created in /Users on the server, and it will not use the /Volumes/XserveRAID/Users/ folder. I will clean out /Users every now and again, but the errant home folders show back up. The only folder that should be in /Users is the local admin.
Since /Users is not even shared, how is it doing this? Why is it that sometimes the /Volumes/XserveRAID/Users share is used (I know this because there are users' files in their folders in the proper place) and sometimes it's going to /Users? Any ideas? Thanks in advance!!
Going slightly mad,
Jason

Hi there,
Just wanted to share my make-due solution.
I have setup the automount sharepoint at "/Data/Home".
When I logged in or tried to use createhomedir in terminal, nothing happened but users could login (even though there was no home folder on the sharepoint for them).
I have created the Home Folders manually "/Data/Home/username" and then logged in again. When I did this it created two folders in the home dir:
-Desktop
-Library
The other icons related to the home dir on the Dock remain big "?" 's.
So I manually added them and assigned them the propper rights.
Now users can log in without any problems, network home folders are working.
So essentially I got thing s to work, luckily I have only a hand full of Mac Users, Imagine having a user base in the hundreds !
Thinking about this really makes me want to know how I can fix this problem, I have a make shift solution but this really isn't the way to go. When I use the createhomedir command, it says "creating homedir on servername.domain.net" and it seems to be busy for like 20 - 30 secs, but after that nothing has changed.
I've checked all possible locations on the server (i thought maybe it might have made local accounts on server by accident, but it didn't.)
If anyone has ANY idea, please share.
Thx!!
Have a nice day

Active Directory Authentication in Weblogic 8.1

Hi,
We want to do authentication from Microsoft Active Directory using weblogic 8.1.
I have created a Active directory and
configured weblogic from console to use it. But it is still not working. Your
help with these question would be highly
appreciated.
1. Is there anyone in group who have tried this before. Please let me know how
to proceed.
2. Is there any tool by which I can get to know the different attribute asked
for configuration in Weblogic?
3. I am not able to login to my application after configuration. Is there any
other way to come to know whether it is working
or not?
There could be plethora of reason but nothing which can come to my mind. Everything
seems to be configured correctly. Here is

First, of all is it possible to use Active Directory authentication in Weblogic
without writing any custom code. If yes, how?
Thanks in advance,

Amit,
We have successfully used WLS 8.1 sp1 with AD - but not without our share of ups
and downs though.
|
|
1) First, make sure you are sending right LDAP queries to AD. To verify this,
we used free 3rd party LDAP browser from Softerra. There is also java based free
browser from Univ of Michigan. Personally, I like Softerra's LDAP browser better.
Play with your LDAP settings using this and make sure AD is returning the right
data.
|
2) AD has some default settings that makes it return only the top 1000 users.
Use ntdsutil.exe to modify these default settings
|
3) AD needs to have the right set of users and groups. To configure this, refer
to WLS docs. This is very well documented in WLS docs. Also refer to this article
http://dev2dev.bea.com/products/wlportal/whitepapers/wlp70_MSADS.jsp as additional
reference
|
4) Also, there are some bugs with 8.1 portal sp1 and AD. It cannot take more than
one Authentication provider. sp2 is supposed to have fixed it. For sp1 we used
another product AD/AM (AD in Application Mode) in combination with MIIS server.
But if you are using sp2, you shouldn't be worry about this.
|
5) In your providers, you might want to get rid of the DefaultAuthentication provider,
once you are able to establish a connection with your ActiveDirectoryAuthentication
provider. The DefaultAuthentication provider causes some problems and does not
let ActiveDirectoryAuthentication provider to behave properly. We haven't fully
investgated the root of this prob. When we deleted DefaultAuthentication provider,
everything worked normally - so we didn't really care that much :-)
|
6) Make sure you have your JAAS options set to OPTIONAL initially and make sure
your are able to authenticate talk to your AD.
|
These are the ones I could think of. Hope this helps..

Hi,
We want to do authentication from Microsoft Active Directory using weblogic
8.1.
I have created a Active directory and
configured weblogic from console to use it. But it is still not working.
Your
help with these question would be highly
appreciated.
1. Is there anyone in group who have tried this before. Please let me
know how
to proceed.
2. Is there any tool by which I can get to know the different attribute
asked
for configuration in Weblogic?
3. I am not able to login to my application after configuration. Is there
any
other way to come to know whether it is working
or not?
There could be plethora of reason but nothing which can come to my mind.
Everything
seems to be configured correctly. Here is
portion of my config.xml related with authentication:
<FileRealm Name="wl_default_file_realm"/>
<PasswordPolicy Name="wl_default_password_policy"/>
<Realm FileRealm="wl_default_file_realm" Name="wl_default_realm"/>
