Hi fellow Ranger users, As I was working on user synchronization from a LDAP with anonymous bind to populate Ranger, I met the same issue as I did almost two years ago : even if I provide Ambari with the property "Anonymous bind", the property is ignored and either Ambari complains that I didn't provided Ranger with a password for LDAP bind, or Ranger UserSync doesn't work because of bad credentials when binding the LDAP. Even more mysterious is the fact that the property cannot be found in the XML properties files.
At the time I first needed this, I used a manual setting I described in that documentation ( https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/RANGER/Configure+Ranger+UserSync+for+LDAP ) but as the configuration changed (I'm using Ranger 0.5.0 with Ambari 2.2.2.0) it doesn't work anymore. Did someone met the same issue ? Is there a workaround/patch ? Thanks for your help, Loïc Loïc CHANEL System Big Data engineer MS&T - WASABI - Worldline (Villeurbanne, France)
