WLS 5.1.0 (sp8) using LDAP on OS390

Help. I'm having a problem booting up WLS 5.1.0 (SP8) using the new
LDAPRealm properties format. Our LDAP server doesn't use the "standard"
attributes (c, o, ou, uid) to define a DN and filter. Does the new way
WLS uses LDAP require that an LDAP server use these standard attributes
for the DN and filter? (It boots up OK with a server that uses these
standard attributes). Do I have the properties correctly formatted to
work with SP8?

I can't get weblogic 5.1, SP8 to work with the os390 ldap server. I
get the same error as Jeff got below. I can get it to work fine with a
Netsape ldap server, but unfortunately I really need it to work with the
os390 ldap server. Does anyone know the solution to this problem?
Thanks,
Heather

This should log the dn, filter, and scope that is passed to the

Java ftp server which can use LDAP, how to integrate with WLS' implementation of LDAP?

Howdy.
I'm setting up a java ftp server
(http://www.mycgiserver.com/~ranab/ftp/index.html) which is capable of using
LDAP for it's user security. I would like to integrate this ftp server with
wls' implementation of LDAP so I only have to admin one user list.
Does wls put it's user list in the LDAP or in it's own proprietary setup? I
tried playing around with it, but the users don't seem to appear in the JNDI
tree. Is this where the LDAP stuff is located? I thought it was in there?
If it's in it's own setup, is there a way to propagate the users to LDAP?
If these look like newbie Q&A, I guess they kind of are, I'm new to LDAP.
Thanks for any input you might have.

Peter,
If you are talking about using the embedded LDAP server in WLS 7.0 for this purpose
I think you are going done the wrong path.
Look at the following URL on how to use an external LDAP server for your custom
application

Security - using LDAP groups

I want to protect my EJB using LDAP groups. WLS is recognizing WLS users but unable
to recogniz groups. Here is my weblogic-ejb-jar.xml
<security-role-assignment>
<role-name>channel-role</role-name>
<principal-name>system</principal-name>
<principal-name>mygroup</principal-name>
<principal-name>cn=mygroup,ou=groups,o=mycompany</principal-name>
</security-role-assignment>
It recognizes user system but not the group. LDAP group is cn=mygroup,ou=groups,o=mycompany.
When I pass the credentials from the client of a uniquemember, WLS generates a
security exception. It won't recognise mygroups or cn=mygroup,ou=groups,o=mycompany
either.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
-Surya

Yes, It has impact. You create groups in the Repository & Answers and assign the object level permissions.
You Populate Group Variable during authentication via LDAP server. Once you login with X name you see the authorized groups in the my account.
For dashboard A - For group Executive - User X - You have given full access.
Now you have changed the Group name to AD_Executive. When You Login variable values would be
User - X
Group - Ad_Executive
Dashboard A - No permissions.
If you have a scenario of changing the group names then get Groups from database using Init block after authorization.

How do I use LDAP with iMQ 2.0?

I am looking for an example to see how to use LDAP with iMQ 2.0.
I was able to set up the config settings to access a local LDAP,
but iMQ authentication still rejects valid logins.
Let me know if I can find more info someplace.

You can also find an example I put togther in the Sun One knowledge base.
If you go here:

Any issues with using LDAP on LINUX for GRC 5.2 UME?

Our company is converting our LDAP servers from AIX to LINUX. The DNS name used in our UME connection should not change. Are there any issues with using LDAP on LINUX? We are currently on GRC 5.2 SP9 (in the middle of upgrading to SP12).
Also, I have been trying to connect our test UME system to a test LDAP box that has already been converted to LINUX but keep getting a 'connection failed' error when I try to test it.
Do you have to reboot the server to test changing the LDAP connections? I've been trying it by going into UME, pulling up the LDAP tab, hitting the Modify button, entering the new userid and password for test LDAP, and hitting the Test Connection button. I've verified that this userid and password is correct for test LDAP.
Is there a way to get more information about why the connection failed?
Thanks.

I've been told by our LDAP Support group that none of the other configuration settings should have to be changed. I should only have to change the id and password to connect to a test version of LDAP instead of our regular connection to the production LDAP.
Can you test a connection for a different userid/password without having to reboot/restart the server? Do I need to change these two settings, save then, reboot/restart, and then do the Test Connection button?
Thanks.

Custom Realm using LDAP?

Hi,
has anyone implemented a custom realm using LDAP? I was suprised to learn that
ACLs are not supported in the LDAPRealm. Our corporate direction is to have a
central LDAP security store - including ACLs. Unfortunately the LDAP server is
MS SiteServer! Anyway, I assume this means I need to implement a custom realm
- unless there is an alternative.
-chris

You are correct - you'll need to write a custom
realm to do this.

How to use LDAP with Oracle forms 10g on Oracle application server

Hi,
I need some help on this. I have developed oracle forms 10g on application server 9iAS. The client want to use the existing LDAP authentication to the software we wrote. I do not know how I could configure to use the existing LDAP authentication . If anyone know how would I use the existing LDAP on different server to use when they logon to our menu in 10g to validate the user. Do I need to add any varibales in formweb.cfg or any other method. Please help.
Thanks
Luksh

I am not quite sure if this works out of the box. According to an Oracle FAQ:
4.2 Can I use LDAP to authenticate Forms Services?
Not directly. However, Oracle Login Server is able to authenticate against a LDAP directory and thus a Forms application can take advantage of this in a SSO environment. But you cannot use access control information stored in a LDAP directory with Forms.

ASA WebVPN. How do you restrict access to users in an AD group using LDAP?

Hi All,
I am trying to configure separate WebVPN connection profiles to give different portal bookmark contents to users based on their AD group membership. This has been very difficult, even though I beleive it should be easy.
The login page of teh ASA by default has a dropdown to allow default users to access the default portal and the SSL VPN client connection.
There are two other portals that I would like to restrict access to based on AD group membership. I have set these up to be selected by URL.
The biggest problem is, I have no way of knowing how to go about this. The AAA LDAP options show a group membership search, which I have configured, but I cannot say "Profile X is restricted to AD group CarpetBaggers", so that if soneone that is NOT a carpetbagger tries to log in, it fails.
I can only do an all or nothing scenario.
It would be nice to use Dynamic Access Policies to do this, and I have created a few, but they do NOT seem to work when the drop down aliases or URLs are in use. So how do I go about using them in this scenario? Turning off the aliases or URLs is not really an option right now.
Scenario 1 would work the best for me. Restrict access to profiles/groups based on AD group membership using LDAP.
Scenario 2 would be an ideal longer term solution.
Any thoughts, ideas or assitance would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers

This is exactly what i was looking for, and Nelson is correct. When you enter the DAP configuration for a profile click on "Advanced" and there is the option to create a logical expression. The guide (ther is a button to access this) is really helpful, with a couple of examples. This is what i used:
assert(function()
   if ( (type(aaa.ldap.distinguishedName) == "string") and
        (string.find(aaa.ldap.distinguishedName, "OU=Users") ~= nil) )
then
       return true
   end
   return false
end)()
from the debug dap you can see what Users relates to;
DAP_TRACE: Username: MyUsername, aaa.ldap.distinguishedName = CN=Mr B,OU=Users,OU=Site ******,DC=CH,DC=Mycompany,DC=com
My admin account fails to get me in to the same profile:
DAP_TRACE: dap_add_to_lua_tree:aaa["ldap"]["distinguishedName"]="CN=Admin Mr B,OU=Admin Users,OU=Site *****,DC=CH,DC=Mycompany,DC=com"

How can I use LDAP searching from OSX Lion Server to Mozilla Thunderbird?

How can I use LDAP searching from OSX Lion Server to Mozilla Thunderbird? We have a super awesome contacts server that works great for our Mac users. About 30% of our company are on PCs, and I would like to use the Mozilla Thunderbird mail client for them. I see that in Thunderbird I can set up LDAP searching, and would like to have this feature point to our contacts server. I've tried several different settings, and looked all over the web, but could not find the proper way to configure this. Does anyone know if this can be done, or if not, would have a better suggestion? Thank you for your time!!

try double clicking keychain acces should launch and ask if you want to install login, system, System roots
A dialog box will launch asking where to install the cert since your configuring a vpn I would put the certificate it in system.

Whereas /etc/default/passwd on the ldap client says passwords must be 8 characters. This is seen with the pam_authtok_check: minimum length from /etc/default/passwd: 8
. It is clearly not using the policy from the directory server but checking locally. So I can login ok using the ldap server for authentication but when I try to change the password it does not use the policy from the server which says I only need a minimum lenght of 6 characters.
I have read that pam_ldap is only supported for directory server 5.2. Because I am running ds6 and with password compatability in ds6 mode maybe this is my problem. Does anyone know of any updated pam_ldap modules for solaris 9?

you can try passwd -r ldap for changing the ldap passwds...

How to delete / remove a group in AD using LDAP?

Can anyone please point me in the right direction to code the ability to delete or remove a group from AD using LDAP? Is this even possible? I'm surprised I cannot find anything related to this action.

How would you delete any other object using LDAP ?
Why do you think deleting a group is any different ?
String groupName = "CN=Idiots,OU=Developers,DC=Antipodes,DC=Com";
// Create the initial directory context
LdapContext ctx = new InitialLdapContext(env,null);
// Delete the group, and wishfully all the idiots that ask stupid questions
ctx.destroySubcontext(groupName);

Filtering Groups on Windows Active Directory using LDAP Authentication

Hi All,
I have small module that filters the groups from the Windows AD using LDAP attributes and flushes the data into the DB[code below].
This module was developed and tested on weblogic 8.1[on windows]and works fine.
Now the same is moved to another environment- Websphere on Linux Suse. The code fails to retreieve any value from the Windows AD.
Please note no exception is aslo thrown.
env.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY,ldapCtxFactory);
          //set security credentials, note using simple cleartext authentication
          env.put(Context.SECURITY_AUTHENTICATION,authentication);
          env.put(Context.SECURITY_PRINCIPAL,adminName);
          env.put(Context.SECURITY_CREDENTIALS,adminPassword);
          //connect to my domain controller
          env.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, domainController);
          // Create the initial directory context
          try {
                              dirCtx = new InitialDirContext(env);
               // Create the search controls
               SearchControls searchCtls = new SearchControls();
               //Specify the attributes to return
               String returnedAtts[]={"member"};
               searchCtls.setReturningAttributes(returnedAtts);
               //Specify the search scope
               searchCtls.setSearchScope(SearchControls.SUBTREE_SCOPE);
               int totalResults = 0;
               int iteration=0;
               // Search for objects using the filter
               NamingEnumeration results = ctx.search(searchBase, searchFilter, searchCtls);
In the above code the method exits even before the try block[i could detect this using Sysout's]
Below is the property file from which the values are read.
admin=username
password=password
#AD search attributes
searchBase=DC=domainname,DC=domainname
searchFilter=(&(objectClass=group) (CN=value*))
#JNDI context attributes
ldapCtxFactory=com.sun.jndi.ldap.LdapCtxFactory
authentication=simple
domainController=ldap://address
groupPattern=pattern
Please Assit,
Thanks in Advance

Assuming it is the same Active Directory environment and only your Java platform has changed, the I can only assume that if no exception is thrown, and no data is returned, then the credentials you are using on the new Java platform are being mapped to an anonymous user (perhaps a blank password ?). By default, Windows Server 2003 domains, do not return any results to anonymous users.

Using LDAP as security realm

Hi,
Our goal is to use LDAP(Iplanet Directory Server 5.0) as a security Realm
for Weblogic Personalization and Commerce 3.5.
Using the WLCS console, I've modified the config.xml file and following
elements are added:
<LDAPRealm AuthProtocol='simple' Credential='admin'
GroupDN='ou=groups,dc=netnumina,dc=com' GroupIsContext='false'
GroupUsernameAttribute='uniquemember'
LDAPURL='ldap://sanand.netnumina.com:389' Name='wlcsLDAPRealm'
Principal='uid=admin,ou=administrators,ou=topologymanagement,o=netscaperoot'
UserAuthentication='local' UserDN='ou=people,dc=netnumina,dc=com'
UserNameAttribute='uid'/>
<CachingRealm BasicRealm='wlcsLDAPRealm' CacheCaseSensitive='true'
Name='wlcsCachingRealm'/>
But when we try to restart the WLCS, it throws java exceptions that context
is not initialized and I get the following error
<Jun 15, 2001 3:41:28 PM EDT> <Emergency> <Server> <Unable to initialize the
ser

I tried using Windows NT as a security realm but that gave me errors too.
Does anyone has any experience using anything other than the default Realm?
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

I'm not sure, but I suspect you can't
since this would create a circular dependency -
your realm would rely on the upper level security
checking calls but those calls would rely on your
realm.
My suggestion is to give it a try and see what
happens.

Hi ,
I am implementing a simple custom security realm using LDAP as the
security store and I can see the users, groups and acls from the admin
console.
My question is (a custom realm newbie question) ;
Is it possible to use weblogic.security.acl.Security with my custom
realm to check permissions, get the current user,etc.,
OR
is this class ONLY used with default realms (when ACL is stored in a
file) ?
Thanks

Solaris 2.6 or 7 using LDAP Auth

I know Solaris 8 support LDAP for Auth. However, there is some 3rd party applications which support in running on Solaris 2.6 only. The existing name service is NIS. Is there any solution for Solaris 2.6 using LDAP (Netscape Directory Server 4.1x) Auth??

Jolene,
The drivers are available free of charge at Openlink Software's
web site - http://www.openlinksw.com. You should download the
Multi-Tier components where JDK1.2 is your client platform and
Oracle 7 is your database engine. This will involve an install
on the client machine as well as the server, but will provide
for maximum flexibility and performance down the road. You will
simply need to point CLASSPATH on your client to the newly
downloaded "opljdbc2.jar" file - the Openlink driver class
archive.
Best regards,
Stephen
