Hi,
I am devloping a sharepoint website in Forms authentication mode. I am trying to authenticate myself/ my company users against company's active
directory.
The ldap path I received from my technical team is
LDAP://infinmumcfac.inf.com
OU=Infotech,DC=inf,DC=com
I got this piece of code from microsoft site.
<membership defaultProvider="LdapMembershipProvider">
<providers>
<add
name="LdapMembership"
type="Microsoft.Office.Server.Security.LDAPMembershipProvider, Microsoft.Office.Server, Version=12.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=71E9BCE111E9429C"
server="DC"
port="389"
useSSL="false"
userDNAttribute="distinguishedName"
userNameAttribute="sAMAccountName"
userContainer="CN=Users,DC=userName,DC=local"
userObjectClass="person"
userFilter="(|(ObjectCategory=group)(ObjectClass=person))"
scope="Subtree"
otherRequiredUserAttributes="sn,givenname,cn"
/>
</providers>
</membership>
The site asked me to change the Server and Usercontainer attribute. I have modified the code to
<membership defaultProvider="LdapMembershipProvider">
<providers>
<add
name="LdapMembership"
type="Microsoft.Office.Server.Security.LDAPMembershipProvider, Microsoft.Office.Server, Version=12.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=71E9BCE111E9429C"
server=” infinmumcfac.inf.com”
port="389"
useSSL="false"
userDNAttribute="distinguishedName"
userNameAttribute="sAMAccountName"
userContainer=" OU=Infotech,DC=inf,DC=com "
userObjectClass="person"
userFilter="(|(ObjectCategory=group)(ObjectClass=person))"
scope="Subtree"
otherRequiredUserAttributes="sn,givenname,cn"
/>
</providers>
</membership>
I placed this code in web.config file of central administration site and my sharepoint website . I am still facing login issues.
Any help or insight would be highly grateful.Thanking in anticipation.
