External LDAP connection for Jive forum webcenter Discussion

Hi All,
We could successfully configure external LDAP with Webcenter Discussion forum. In turns Jive forum.
Problem we are facing : It is authenticating for display name instead of actual userid.
EX:
John Paul (display name)
[email protected] (email id)
John.paul (userid)
It is accepting John Paul as username instead of john.paul. This is issue as there can be duplicate display names.
Which parameter and where to configure to make sure Authentication is done for userid only.

I think jive is used in webcenter discussions?
You may have the wrong forum... this is for Webcenter Interaction Products.

Using external LDAP server for WL JNDI lookups

I'm trying to find out if it is possible to re-direct JNDI calls to the WL
server to an external LDAP server. I know you can install an external LDAP
server for security purposes, but I would like to use an external LDAP
server to handle all JNDI lookups (like for JNDI EJB name location, etc.).
Is this possible?

Custom user name mapper needs external LDAP connection.

I have a custom user name mapper that needs to connect to our external LDAP. Our security realm is configured to connect to the external LDAP for users and groups. Is there a way to reuse this connection in the custom user name mapper?

point 2
is there any method available in this API to reset pasword of user in LDAP ?
thank you in advance

Hello,
If you need this info, you will have to create a password policy that log last logon time.
But be carefull with this function, it can create a lot of cpu load.

Authentication problem by external ldap server for WLS 7.0

Hi all,
I have configured iPlanet directory Server to serve as authentication security
provider for WLS 7.0.While doing so I have created a Test security realm and made
it as default.I have also configured the other default settings for the remaining
security providers for the realm.
Now, while I start the WLS with the default username and password, boot-error
comes as given below. As a matter of fact I have also created groups with relevant
username and pwd in the ldap server as specified bu the Bea documentation.
I have tried to remove the problem since last 4 days but all in fiasco.
If anybody has any pointer to the problem - it will be a great help.

Thanks Vijay - it has worked by creating the Administrator group in LDAP but Weblogic
documentation also states the creation of any group in Ldap server with the boot
username and pwd and then adding the group in the admin role of WLS7.0 - but this
did not work.
If there is any info regarding the same - pl. do let me know

Ritwik,
I think WebLogic 7 requires a group called "Administrators" in the LDAP
server
and requires an user to be added to that group. I have this working in
one of
my projects. The group really doesnt need to be an LDAP administrative
group.
Can you provide any additional information. I might be able to help since
I got
this working only a coupla days back.

External LDAP for UCM

Hi.
Is it possible to use external LDAP server for my UCM server without using external LDAP server for my admin server?
That is I have a domain with admin server and UCM server.
My admin server doesn't have external LDAP.
So is it possible to use external LDAP server for my UCM server in such situation?
And if it is possible, could you give me some information about it?
(sorry for my english)

First of all, thank you for links.
But I have a problem: I configured my own LDAP provider and I can see that 'Connection State' is good (5 out of 5 connections are good), but I can not log in into UCM with users in my LDAP (Invalid Credentials. Please try entering your user name and password again.).
Here is my LDAP provider configuration:
Provider Name:      MyLDAP
Provider Description:      MyLDAP
Connection State:      5 out of 5 connections are good
Last Activity Date:      12/17/12 4:23 PM
Provider Type:      ldapuser
Provider Class:      intradoc.provider.LdapUserProvider
Provider Connection:      intradoc.provider.LdapConnection
Source Path:      MyLDAP
LDAP Server:      localhost
LDAP Suffix:      dc=example,dc=com
LDAP Port:      10389
Number of connections:      5
Connection timeout:      10
Priority:      1
Credential Map:
SSL Enabled:      No
Attribute Map:      uid:dFullName
Role Prefix:      ou=groups
Default Network Roles:      guest
Filter Groups:      Yes
Use Full Group Name:      No
LDAP Admin DN:      uid=admin,ou=system
And my LDAP structure:
"dc=example,dc=com"
_____"ou=groups,dc=example,dc=com"
__________"cn=Administrators,ou=groups,dc=example,dc=com"
__________"cn=admin,ou=groups,dc=example,dc=com"
_____"ou=people,dc=example,dc=com"
__________"uid=asdasd,ou=people,dc=example,dc=com"
__________"uid=qweqwe,ou=people,dc=example,dc=com"
In 'cn=Administrators' entry I have 'uniqueMember:uid=asdasd,ou=people,dc=example,dc=com' property
In 'cn=admin' entry I have 'uniqueMember:uid=qweqwe,ou=people,dc=example,dc=com' property
Nevertheless I can't log in into UCM with users in my LDAP (Invalid Credentials. Please try entering your user name and password again.).
Could you show me my mistake?

Reuse the LDAP connection when Using SASL DIGEST-MD5

I have problem to use the same ldap connection for multiple SASL authenticaiton.
step1, LDAPConection conn=new LDAPCo...
conn.conect()..
step2, do a SASL DIGEST-MD5, successfully get a challenge from server and server confirmation after the response is correct.
step3, I want to use the same connection for another authetincation of different user, some how the server did not give back the challenge and reject the authenticaiton request again.
So my question is how can we reuse the same connection for SASL authentication?
Any switch or reset on the LDAP connection or the LDAP server has to be configured in some way to take multiple authentication using the same connection?

More than fifty people have read this post, but there are no replies as
of yet. I'm going to interpret that as "SASL DIGEST-MD5 is not
supported by the Novell CSharp library."

Identity Server using external LDAP

anyone have idea whether ID Server can use external an LDAP server for authentication, like the Policy Server in Portal Server 3 ?

You typically need to use our JNDI store. We strongly recommend this for

You can use the JNDI To LDAP bridge which is available from the sun web

CUBAC Enable external LDAP integration

Hi,
I've client where Attendant is seeing the User's Home Phone number. Customer's requirement is to show the Mobile and IP Phone extension.
To me it seems they aren't synchronizing with CUCM but directly with Microsoft AD. Enable external LDAP integration is checked and greyed out.
Is my doubt correct, the client is pulling the Phone information from AD directly?
How can I uncheck the External LDAP Integration checkbox, do I need to rerun the setup or LDAPServer.exe to do it? Would there be any loss of configuration?
If Customer wants to continue pulling the info from MS AD directly, can I add some kind of filters in CUBAC not to pick up Home phone field but Mobile Phone and IP Phone extension if those fields are populated?
CUBAC version is 3.1.8
Thanks,

Hi,
Context:
I'm using SunOne Directory server as the External LDAP server for my
application.
Q1 ) My understanding is that the default providers provided by Weblogic
communicate
ONLY with the embedded LDAP server. Is this understanding correct? That
means
if I'm integrating with the external LDAP server, I need to have custom
implementation
for ALL the providers ( i.e Authentication Provider, Authorization provider,
IDentity
Assertion Provider, RoleMapper , Credential Mapper etc). COMMENTS :
Your understading is correct. (for Authentication, Autherization, RoleMapper,
CredentialMapper). But you dont need to create custom implementation for all providers.
You can plug and play OR stack providers in the default realm (myrealm). Or you
can create your own realm and still can add the weblogic OOTB providers, wherever
you dont want to implement custom providers. OOTB BEA provides an Authentication
provider which can integrate with 3rd party Directory Servers (see http://e-docs.bea.com/wls/docs81/secmanage/providers.html#1172008
for more info). But if you wish to perform other services like Authorization,
CredentialMapping, RoleMapping with external LDAP providers, then YES you have
to write custom providers.
>
Q2) Or is there a way I can configure the weblogic to communicate with
an External
LDAP server so that I can use the default providers i.e when I invoke
request.isUserInRole(....),
the look up should be on the external LDAP NOT the internal LDAP.COMMENTS :
No the default providers are written to look up the Embeded LDAP. But writing
a provider is well documented (see http://e-docs.bea.com/wls/docs81/dvspisec/index.html

LDAP Servers not listed when trying to setup new LDAP connection

Using SQL Developer: 1.5.1
Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.2.0
Windows XP client environment
Can anyone clarify how to setup LDAP connections in SQL Developer. We use LDAP for our connections with all the other Oracle tools like SQL*Plus and other developer tools like forms. LDAP is working fine for all of those tools. However, when I try to setup an LDAP connection for SQL*Developer no servers are found for the drop down box. Do we need to put the sqlnet.ora and ldap.ora files somehwere so that SQL Developer can find them? Does SQL Developer even need them? How does the LDAP server get populated in SQL Developer? Thanks. I have tried looking at other posts on this issue and nothing really jumped out at how to do this. I do have some older version Oracle homes setup also. For example we have a Oracle 6i home setup on our machines for the old versions of forms and reports.

I set it to C:\Oracle10g_DevSuiteHome_1\NETWORK\ADMIN. This is under one of my Oracle Homes on this machine that contains the sqlnet.ora and the LDAP.ora files. This didn't appear to make any difference. Still no LDAP servers listed when you try to add or build a new connection. I tried some of my other Oracle Homes and still no effect. I have also tried copying the sqlnet.or and the ldap.ora files to other directories. I have switched my default Oracle Home to point to the 9i and above homes and this made no difference.
I have never had to do anything with an environment variable called TNS_ADMIN before. I almost remember a variable called TNS_ADMIN years ago in the registery that had to be modified and it was TNS_ADMIN if I remember correclty. When you said to set an environment variable you did mean to just set or create a new environment variable using the My Computer > Properties > Advanced Tab > Environment Variables on the client machine. I just want to make sure I set the right variable. Thanks for you help and suggestons.
By the way I can connect just fine using basic or advanced connections. I just would like to use LDAP so I don't have to maintain connections when port, server or SID change. For example we just failed over and the fail over database is on a different server. We do this as a test or when needed for failover purposes. If you are using the basic and advanced connections you need to go in a update connection information. If we use LDAP this is all maintained by the DBAs and individual clients shouldn't have to maintain any connection information as long as the have the right SID. The documentation for SQL Developer doesn't really seem to address how to setup LDAP connections it just mentions that you can do it and it sounds simple.

I want to use the Thunderbolt connection for an external hard drive

I want to use the Thunderbolt connection for an external hard drive - so what port would I use on the MacBook Pro 13" for the display monitor. Thank you!

This is not the forum for MacBook Pro owners.
You just need to reformat the drive in Disk Utility and erase the drive and have Mac HFS.
If you did need to use NTFS then you would not want -3G but Paragon NTFS for OS X x. 10.0
Or buy something that isn't pre-formatted to Windows NT file system.
First though make sure you have backups of your system. TimeMachine being used now?
http://macperformanceguide.com/Mac-TimeMachine-drive.html
http://www.apple.com/support/timemachine/
Maybe cleanout some files you don't need.
Install a larger notebook hard drive even.
http://www.macsales.com/firewire has a lot of choice in Mac compatible drives and enclosures so you don't need to worry about Fantom not working at some point.
