Hi I am running 3.0.2 and am trying to place Graylog into using AD authentication. I have a group called “Graylog2” in my Users section of my AD server. Below are my settings but I still receive the below error.
You have this in User mapping → Search base DN. In Group mapping → Group search base DN you have ou=Users in first position, try to change it to cn=Users (this was why I asked about Users container).
@Karlis is right, if the you are using the default Users folder it should look similar to the following:
CN=Users,DC=corp,DC=domain,DC=com
If you look at the attributes of your test user and pull the the distinguishedName, it will give you all the correct OU/CN/DC information you need.
Just checking - the test user is located in the default Users folder you are pointing to and is also a member of the Graylog2 AD group… it doesn’t matter where the Graylog2 AD group is located.
Note: It is not necessary to use administrator for LDAP. Best practice is to create normal AD user without admin permissions to verify users in LDAP AD.
Try to login with user@domain not only domain, if it works
Also it is best you check complete path to LDAP user for example with ADSI Edit if it match.
