Need Help With ACS LDAP setup to Query AD

I have 2 Win 2003 ADs, one of them is configured and working under Windows Database (using remote agent) configuration. I am trying to setup the second AD with Generic LDAP setup. I want to know what exactly I should use in the fields UserObjectType and Class, and GroupObjectType and Class for Windows 2003 AD. All Cisco documents give example of Netscape LDAP syntax. I was told by our server admin. what to put under Admin DN, CN=myid,OU=mygroup,OU=myorg,DC=mydomain,DC=com
I have both user & group directory subtree fields filled with DC=mydomain,DC=com.
I am using the ip address for Primary LDAP server, and port is 389, LDAP version 3 is checked.
Is any of these DC, OU, etc. case sensitive?
With all entries that I have tried, when I go to map a group, I am getting error "LDAP server NOT reachable. Please check the configuration". My ACS can ping the domain controller's IP address fine.
Please help. Thank you in advance,
Murali

    Just before letting changes (installation in this case) be made on the system, Mac OS prompts for password & this has to be the Mac system password. This password prompt is the system's own native prompt & would accept the system password only. Please make sure it is the right system password (all/admin rights) and the installaion should run.

  • Help with ios LDAP setup for VPN access

    I am trying to move Microsoft LDAP for my vpn setup to an ISR router with 15.1 code . It has support but very little doccumentation. Anyone configured this before? i need some help or  basic  config.

    Ldap authentication started from 7.1 if I recall correctly along with LDAP mapping which helps you validate whether the user has the dial in attribute on or of. I would say starting from 7.1 till the latest 8.X version.
    Version 6.X does not have this feature.

  • I need help with proper DNS setup for 10.5.8 Server

    I'm administering a 10.5.8 server that I sold and setup about a year ago. I'm experiencing issues with getting iCal server to be happy. All of the clients are running 10.5.8, but I'm running 10.6.1. I've heard from others that connecting iCal in 10.6 to a 10.5 iCal Server should be no problem.
    I'm beginning to think that I have DNS issues. Probably because I'm not and never have been 100% certain how to set it up completely correctly. I used to be able to get Kerberos tickets, but now I can't. With the new "Ticket Viewer" in 10.6, it asks for two bits of information. First is "Identity" where I'm guessing I should put [email protected] and then password. When I do this I get an alert dialog that says "Kerberos Error -- cannot resolve network address for KDC in realm example.com"
    The server is a Mac Pro tower with two Ethernet ports. En2 is connected directly to the Internet and has a static IP with a domain name assigned to it. We'll call it "example.com" for the purposes of the discussion. The En1 is connected to the network switch and has a static LAN IP of 192.168.1.250. All clients inside and outside are able to reach the server via domain name for WWW & AFP, no problem.
    nslookup on the static IP address returns "example.com" and nslookup on "example.com" returns the correct static IP address. Open Directory is running and happy including Kerberos. The LDAP search base is "dc=example,dc=com". The LDAP search base is a concept I haven't quite grasped, so I'm just going to assume it's correct.
    The domain name is hosted outside by a service provider that forwards all "example.com" requests to the server with the exception of mail.
    In DNS, I have three "sections" that look like this:
    Name Type Value
    1.168.192.in-addr.arpa. Reverse Zone -
    192.168.1.250 Reverse Mapping example.com.
    000.000.00.in-addr.arpa. Reverse Zone -
    000.000.000.000 Reverse Mapping example.com.
    com. Primary Zone -
    mail.example.com. Alias mail.our-email-isp.com.
    example.com. Machine Multiple values
    www.example.com. Machine Multiple values
    NOTE: the zeros aren't actually zeros, they are the static IP assigned to the server/domain
    When I select the top element "1.168.192.in-addr.arpa." down below "Allows zone transfer" is NOT checked. Nameservers shows the zone as "1.168.192.in-addr.arpa." and the Nameserver Hostname as "ns.example.com."
    When I select the next line down "192.168.1.250", Resolve 192.168.1.250 to: example.com.
    When I select the "000.000.00.in-addr.arpa." element, it has the same settings -- nameservers "000.000.00.in-addr.arpa." and "ns.example.com."
    When I select the next line down (our static IP), Resolve 000.000.000.000 to: example.com.
    When I select "com." the admin email is populated with a valid email address, Allows zone transfer is NOT checked. In nameservers, Zone is "com." and Nameserver Hostname is "example.com." The mail exchangers are mail2.our-email-isp.com. priority 10 and mail.our-email-isp.com. and priority 20.
    When I select the machine "example.com." it shows both the real-world static IP and the 192.168.1.250, same with "www.example.com.".
    Am I doing something wrong with this setup? Should "com." be the primary zone or should that be "example.com." ???
    I've been thinking about getting rid of the DNS entry for the 192.168.1.250 address altogether, but will the clients in the office suffer performance issues??? I do not think that the client workstations are configured to get DNS from the server anyway. Should the "www.example.com." record be a Machine record or should it be an alias record?
    Any help you have to offer is greatly appreciated! Thanks!
    In the meantime, I'm going to look around and see if I can understand "Allows zone transfer" and LDAP Search base a bit better.

    Okay, I found a lovely article at the following address which I think helps me to clarify what I'm doing wrong. Despite that, I'd still like to have any feedback you have to offer.
    http://www.makemacwork.com/configure-internal-dns-1.htm
    Also, when editing DNS entries, Server Admin likes to set the nameserver to "ns." -- whatever your domain is. Should I be overriding that and if so, replace it with what?

  • Need help with QoS config/setup for my home network.

    I have a home network that spans two buildings, has and FTP download server, VoIP phones,and several computers among other IP devices.  I run a home based business where my clients get access to the company FTP download server (NOT illegal file sharing).  the problem is that when they are downloading files my VoIP takes a big hit and gets choppy when speaking to my customers.  Below is  the layout of the network.
    Our Internet access is Verizon 4G, there are no other options available at this time or we would switch.  The Verizon 4G MiFi connects to a TP-Link wifi router that then connects to port fa0/5 on the Office 3550PoE switch.  There is a trunk between the Office switch to the House 3550PoE switch.  The House switch then connects to the Shop 3524XL switch also using a trunk.  Please note that EVERYTHING works fine other than the VoIP issue, VoIP makes and receives calls without connections issues.
    Auto QoS has been run on the Office switch ports fa0/1 and fa0/2 as well as on the House switch ports fa0/3 and fa0/5.  There is NO auto QoS on the 3524XL
    What is the best way to give VoIP traffic top priority over FTP and web browsing when going out port fa0/5 on the Office Switch?  Over the internal network we are not having any call quality issues between the IP phones, just calls to our SIP provider.  Yes, I understand that once calls exit the Office switch to the TP-Link wifi router there will not be any QoS.  But, if I can give priority to the packets at the layer 3 Office switch (or wherever you suggest) then at least I will not have to kill a users FTP download while I am on the phone.
    Thank You

    I can make ANY changes necessary, just need to know what to do.
    First, did you notice the output of the command  sh mls qos fa0/5 above?  Is it working correctly?

    With the Partitioning, OLAP, Data Mining and Real Application Testing optionsThanks for posting this (and the WITH clause for the sample data). That's very helpful.
    I have some student responses and the valid values are +/-/O(alphabet)/P and spaces at the end of the sting only not in the middle.Are you combining the responses to several qeustions in one VARCHAR2 column? It might be better to have a separate row for each question.
    As per my requirement the record number 2 3,4 should be listed from the query but I am getting only one (record 3). What exactly is your requirement? Are you trying to find the rows where student_response contains any of the forbidden characters, or where it contains a space anywhere but at the end of the string?
    Can we use REG_EXPYes, but it's easy enough, and probably more efficient, to not use regular expressions in this case:
    Here's one way:
    SELECT     record_number
    ,     student_response
    FROM     x
    WHERE     TRANSLATE ( UPPER ( RTRIM (student_response, ' '))
                , 'X+-OP'
                , 'X'
                )     IS NOT NULL
    ;That is, once you remove trailing spaces and all occurrences of '+', '-', 'O' or 'P', then only the forbidden characters are left, and you want to select the row if there are any of those.
    If you really, really want to use a regular expression:
    SELECT     record_number
    ,     student_response
    FROM     x
    WHERE     REGEXP_LIKE ( RTRIM (student_response)
                  , '[^-+OP]'          -- or '[^+OP-]', but not '[^+-OP]'.  Discuss amongst yourselves
                  , 'i'
    ;but, I repeat, this will probably be slower than the first solution, using TRANSLATE.

    The following is slightly simpler than TRANSLATE:
    SELECT     record_number
    ,     student_response
    FROM     x
    WHERE     RTRIM ( UPPER ( RTRIM (student_response, ' '))
               , '+-OP'
               )          IS NOT NULL

  • Newbie need help with Web BEx setup!

    Out of curiosity, I decided to install Netweaver so I can have a play with it. I am a complete newbie to Netweaver therefore I apologise if this is out of context...
    Here's my question:
    How do one go about getting Web BEx to work?
    Whenever I activate the link in the portal, I get an error about unknown "SWITCH_AXES" command and 0ANALYSIS type 4 error. I search the forum and the few passing mentions of the problem points to OSS notes that is only accessible through service marketplace (which I don't have an ID). I have check the object types in BI content and seems that 0ANALYSIS is already activated. There must be something I am missing. Tried blindly and randomly installed other BI content (mostly Web templates and objects) but to no avail (and encounted a few short dumps).
    Any help is greatly appreciated!
    So far, here're what I did:
    1) Install Netweaver 2004S ABAP and Java on the same machine. Instance 00, 01 and 02 respectively.
    2) Try to run BI-Java template installer, but met with error part way. So some of the steps are done manually.
    3) Set up SLD (both instance are in the landscape), and 'partially' set up SSO. Partially as while JAVA to ABAP seems to work, ABAP to JAVA is not working. Anoying but livable.
    4) Installed TREX (instance 03) and are seen by ABAP and JAVA.
    5) ABAP is seen in the portal and I can create transactional iviews and put them in the Portal (with working SSO).
    6) Did reverse-proxying with Apache, but I don't think it matters as it seems to be a backend module issue.
    7) Business planning/wizard is working (in ABAP and Portal) as is Broadcast. As you can see, Web BEx is the only thing that is not working

    The default link for Web Analyser in EP 7 seems to point to the new template. When opening the analysis template in the new BEx windows tool, the same error is being reported. Using 3.5.x WAD, I can't locate the template.
    More on this issue Although for that case, the meta data is not installed. Is there a way to trace missing component and reinstall the needed BI content in RSA1?
    BTW, these are on JAVA SP9 and ABAP SP11.

  • Need help with Pixi Plus setup on Telstra Australia

    If any one can help i would be very grateful.
    I'm in Australia and wanted to try out a WebOS phone as a replacement for my Treo 680.
    I did the research and found that AT&T GSM phones will work here in Australia.
    I found a new unactivated Pixi Plus on eBay, as it was the same WebOS as Pre thought i would give it a try and bought it.
    So my new Pixi Plus arrived three weeks ago, put my sim in and found it was locked to AT&T. I rang AT&T and was told it will be locked till end of December because of there system. The eBay seller said it was locked and may be able to be unlocked.
    I found a way around this problem as i didn't want to wait that long.
    I ordered a Rebelsim Card that arrived a few days ago, put it in and seems to work. Now have Telstra Mobile in the top corner.
    Now my problem really starts.
    I can't get onto the web to activate and set up my '' cloud ''
    My phone is asking for APN:
    I have tried:
    telstra.iph
    telstra.internet
    Nothing works.
    I can't get out of this screen without a APN:
    This APN: thing i didn't find out untill i got the phone. Can't find much info at all on the subject.
    Why is Palm making it so difficult, don't they want to sell phones.
    Had no problems with my 650 and 680's bought form overseas.
    Can anyone point me in the right direction please.
    Thanks

  • Need Help with Multiple Airport Setup

    I have the following hardware:
    2- Airport Extreme (Simultaneous Dual-Band II)
    1- Airport Extreme 802.11n (Fast Ethernet)
    2- Airport Express 802.11n
    Microcom EZ-BR2 802.11b/g Bridge Kit (the routers see this as just an ethernet cable connecting the two points)
    Extras (old Airport Extreme Dome, Old Airport Express, D-Link DIR625)
    I am host at a camp and retreat facility in a national forest. We have a satellite connection in our ball field on one end of the campus. The satellite line goes into a recreation building with the modem and Airport Extreme 802.11n (Fast Ethernet) router. The Microcom EZ-BR2 is plugged in to this on one end and connects to one of the Airport Extreme (Simultaneous Dual-Band II)'s in our main building office 800 feet away. The router in the office is set up as the main router for the wireless network, our Ooma phone & network printer are plugged in here. There is one Airport Express in this building giving internet access to a Power Mac G4 & old iMac. Up to this point everything works fine. My house is across the road from the office and has a pretty strong signal from the office router. I tried hooking up the other Airport Extreme (Simultaneous Dual-Band II) at home. If I set it up to extend the network the wireless works, but the Ethernet ports do not. If I set it up in bridge mode, the ethernet ports work but it doesn't extend the network, so I put the other Airport Express in bridge mode first to get internet in to the Extreme then made a new network for the house, If I keep it all the same network my Apple TV doesn't really work, with a second network our iphones and misc. devices keep getting kicked off the network "IP not valid", so I have to keep powering down to get everything working again. How should I set this up?

    My house is across the road from the office and has a pretty strong signal from the office router. I tried hooking up the other Airport Extreme (Simultaneous Dual-Band II) at home. If I set it up to extend the network the wireless works, but the Ethernet ports do not.
    To have the Ethernet port active, you would have to configure both the AEBSn in the office and the one you have in your house as an extended network ... with the office AEBSn configured for "Allow this network to be extended" and the house AEBSn configured for "Extend a wireless network."
    The key here is that (most likely) you will not be able to extend the 5 GHz radio and possibly not the 2.4 GHz radio due to the range between the AirPorts. The higher frequency network typically has a usable range of 50-75 feet; the 2.4 GHz network, 100-150 feet. By "usable," I mean with sufficient bandwidth to be worth it.
    You can test this by measuring the Signal & Noise values and calculating the resultant Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR). You will want the house AEBSn within a 25+dB range of the one in the office.
    Let me know if you need further assistance on how to take these measurements.

    Using this xorg.conf file, only my NEC LCD analog monitor could display KDE while the Samsung digital can't.
    Any suggestions?   

    Thanks for your help guys, I'm halfway there.
    The second monitor shows the KDE desktop, but it isn't exactly what I expected.  Right now, both monitors display at 1024x768 (each) or 2048x768 (total).  The larger monitor stretches and distorts the display of 1024x768 to its natural resolution at 1440x900 and it isn't what I wanted.  Other than that, the dual desktop setup behaves what I expected to.

  • Need help with complex NAT setup with DHCP forwarding

    This is going to get a little crazy, so try to stick with me... Attached is a very crude network map to clarify as best I can...
    I need my Cisco 831 to perform 1-to-1 NAT, but the Inside Global ('Black' LAN hosts as seen by the WAN) addresses must be assigned via DHCP from a DHCP server on the WAN. (This is the complex NAT part) The internal IP addresses would by assigned by the 831's DHCP.
    In addition, the WAN's DHCP server must see the MAC address of the request as the one that belongs to the host on my LAN - Effectively, the WAN DHCP server should not be able to tell there is NAT going on. (This is the DHCP forward problem)
    Any ideas on how to combine these tasks?
    TIA,
    -Chris Bowles, CCNA

    Hi.
    I don't think this is supported in alter table command. But you can code that inside an if statement which queries systables & syscolumns. Your code should be something like that:
    if (select count(*) from sysobjects, syscolumns where sysobjects.id = syscolumns.id and sysobjects.name = 'some_table' and syscolumns.name = 'some_column') < 1
    begin
        alter table some_table add some_column numeric(12) not null
    end
    This is an example..

  • I need help with the boot setup in BIOS

    I am trying to reinstall windows 7 back onto my sister's laptop, The BIOS Version is 3.5
     I went to the boot order to put the cd/dvd rom in the first boot order and then the notebook hard dive second, selecting f 10 to save and exit. When the computer boot up to go through it process, it goes to a screnn saying that boot device cannot be found, please install a window operating system (3F0) Going back to the BIOS and setting the BIOS to default, selecting f 10, save and exit. Goes through the boot up getting the boot device cannot be found.....
     Again I go through the BIOS to the boot order and moving the cd/dvd rom first and the notebook hard drive second and selecting the f 10 to save and exit. Anyway, I still get Boot Device Cannot be Found, Please Install a Windows Operating System (3F0). 
     Can someone please help me or is this a lost cause. 

    Hi,
    Rather than setting the boot priority in the bios menu, try the following and see if there's any change.
    Remove the installation dvd and shutdown the notebook.
    Tap away at the esc key as you start the notebook to enter the Start-up Menu. 
    Insert the Windows DVD. 
    Select the Boot options menu ( f9 ), use the arrow keys to select the CD/DVD drive and hit enter.  You may also get a prompt to 'Press any key to continue' - do this if asked.

  • Need help with an XML-based SQL query

    Hello, everyone:
    I get 'no rows selected' from the following queries:
    SELECT extractValue((p.entity_types_xml), '/entities/test[a=fagioli]')
    FROM entity_types p
    WHERE
    existsNode(p.entity_types_xml,
    '/entities/test/text()') = 1;
    SELECT extractValue((p.entity_types_xml), '/entities/test/text()')
    FROM entity_types p
    WHERE
    existsNode(p.entity_types_xml, '/entities/test/text()') = 1;
    SELECT
    extractValue(p.entity_types_xml,'/entities/ARFinance-elem/entity-type')
    FROM entity_types p
    WHERE
    existsNode(p.entity_types_xml,'/entities/ARFinance-elem/ARFinanceTBD/text()') = 1;
    where the entity_types table looks like this:
    SQL> desc entity_Types;
    Name Null? Type
    ENTITY_TYPES_ID NOT NULL VARCHAR2(36)
    ENTITY_TYPES_XML NOT NULL XMLTYPE
    CLIENT_ID VARCHAR2(30)
    and the XML fragment looks like this:
    +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    <entities
    xmlns="http://www.thirdpillar.com/xml/namespace/aom/entity"
    xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
    xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.thirdpillar.com/xml/namespace/aom/entity ../generated/denormalized-schema.0.xsd">
    <test a="fagioli">pasta</test>
    <ARFinance-elem>
    <uid b="pasta">123</uid>
    <entity-type><![CDATA[ARFinance]]></entity-type>
    <ARFinanceTBD>tobedetermined</ARFinanceTBD>
    </ARFinance-elem>
    ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
    As you can see, there is data in /entities/test[@a] as well as /entities/test/text(),
    so why aren't any of the queries returning the preceding XML fragment? Suggestions welcome and appreciated....
    Regards,
    Oswald
    ps: I'm sure I've overlooked something simple.

    Oswald,
    I think you need to add the namespace
    select extractValue(.....','xmlns:xsi="http://www.thirdpillar.com/xml/namespace/aom/entity"')
    from entity_types p
