You're not helping me in getting any closer to find the source of this issue at all.
I thought we established already very a long time ago that : -> There is no problem with the AD server since other LDAP clients can browse it successfully. -> There is no problem with the communication between the server host and the AD server since ldap-search on the same host has no problems with querying the server successfully. In my infrastructure I have appliances, RADIUS servers, Client and Server OS and several other third party software solutions, all authenticating to Active Directory without any issues whatsoever. You don't need to be a rocket scientist to realize this : If your solution is the only software that *doesn't* work, what is the obvious direction to look in? As for your suggestions below; I've already tried narrower OU's in the past, and if you read my replies, you'd know I'm already using a specific AD server. I'm sorry to say, but if we are going to keep mucking about in the woods like we are now, I'm throwing in the towel. I've been at this for two weeks with you and your latest reply is putting us exactly where we started out in the beginning. If guesswork and pointing fingers elsewhere is the only modus operandi on this issue I'll just mark your project als "incomplete" and "non-functional" and look elsewhere for a solution. And for the record; there's no such thing as computer "weirdness"; the only "weirdness" a computer is capable of is at following a logic that a human fails to understand. _______________________________________________ Keep Baruwa FREE - http://pledgie.com/campaigns/12056
