I'm using a standard CFLDAP query pair for auth just as Adobe describes (http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_18169), and it works great for all but the latest of my application users. The first query (confirming the user in the name server with admin credentials) works fine, but the second (using the user's cedentials) will not execute - it hangs on the line containing the user's password in the second query. If I change the user's credentials in the second query to the admin creds, it will execute (but, of course, it's only authenticating the username and not the password). This server also does not execute the CFLDAP queries when I use an asterisk instead of naming the attributes I want returned.
I queried their name server with Softerra's LDAP browser, and I can't find the password attribute using the name for it given to me by my client's system administrator. I also can't find any other atribute that looks like it could be the password. So I have no idea where to go with this. The client is running CF8 and the above applies using default port 389. When I try to use port 636 and SSL_basic security, the application will not connect to the LDAP server at all. They don't seem to know what CA authority they use and they won't let me into the cacert folder to find out what's in there - but it doesn't matter until I can get this to work even via 389. It's a large medical center, so I suspect they're using a standard CA authority and certification should be in the default CF cacert file. I have to make it work (this is my first comercial application) and it works great for my 4 other users. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
