Thanks, Stuart. Looking at your sample, I was able to fix it. I had a blank ldap.id_field, which the LDAP guy said was correct, but changing it to ldap.id_field = cn allowed me to log in!

Once you have logged in, that will change to your login. Could you show us the LDAP configuration values you have (except for the password!). This might give us a clue. If it helps, there is a set of example LDAP settings (which should work if you want to try them against a public LDAP server) at: - http://blog.stuartlewis.com/2008/08/18/test-ldap-service-upgraded-now-with-branches/ Thanks, Stuart Lewis Digital Development Manager Te Tumu Herenga The University of Auckland Library Auckland Mail Centre, Private Bag 92019, Auckland 1142, New Zealand Ph: +64 (0)9 373 7599 x81928 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The modern datacenter depends on network connectivity to access resources and provide services.
