First, I'm not an AD admin on site, but my manager has asked me to try to get my personal Redmine installation to integrate with ActiveDirectory in order to test-drive it for a larger-scale rollout.
Our AD server is at host:port ims.example.com:389
and I have a user IMS/me
.
Right now, I also have a user me
in Redmine using local authentication.
I have created an ActiveDirectory LDAP authentication method in RedMine with the following parameters:
Host: ims.example.com
Port: 389
Base DN: cn=Users,dc=ims,dc=example,dc=com
On-The-Fly User Creation: YES
Login: sAMAccountName
Firstname: givenName
Lastname: sN
Email: mail
Testing this connection works just fine.
I have, however, not successfully authenticated with it.
I've created a backup admin user so that I can get back in to the me
account if I break things, and then I've tried changing me
to use the ActiveDirectory credentials. However, once I do, nothing works to log in. I have tried all of these login name options:
me
IMS/me
IMS\me
I've used my known Domain password, but no joy.
So, what setting do I have wrong, or what information do I need to acquire in order to make this work?
