Re: How to connect to LDAP server on Geronimo from an LDAP client?

[Phani Madgula]

Hi Hernan,

 

Thanks for the link. It is quite helpful & informative.

 

I did similar operations, as specified in my previous mail, by deploying the sample application given in the article. 

 

I added a new user user3/pass123 in "ou=users, ou=system" in Directory server, and in geronimo-web.xml I added the user3 in role mappings

 

     <role-mappings>

            <role role-name="content-administrator">
              

              <realm realm-name="ldap-realm">

 
<principal class="org.apache.geronimo.security.realm.providers.GeronimoGroupPrincipal" 

              name="admin" designated-run-as="true"/>
<principal class="org.apache.geronimo.security.realm.providers.GeronimoUserPrincipal"

              name="system"/>
<principal class="org.apache.geronimo.security.realm.providers.GeronimoUserPrincipal"

              name="user3"/>
              

                </realm>
        

             </role>
 

             <role role-name="guest">
                <realm realm-name="ldap-realm">
<principal class="org.apache.geronimo.security.realm.providers.GeronimoGroupPrincipal "

                  name="guest" designated-run-as="true"/>
<principal class="org.apache.geronimo.security.realm.providers.GeronimoUserPrincipal"

                 name="user1"/>
<principal class="org.apache.geronimo.security.realm.providers.GeronimoUserPrincipal"

                  name="user2"/>
                </realm>
            </role>
 

        </role-mappings>

 

I used Jxplorer LDAP client to create the new user users3. When I provide password in PLAIN format which uses BASE64 encoding through LDAP client, the application is authenticating successfully. When I store it in MD5, the authentication is failing for user3.

 

Any issue while using MD5 ?

 

thanks
