I am configuring Active Directory Authentication with graylog.
Connection to the domain controller is working.
All parameter seems to be correct
LDAP group mapping shows the group GrayLogRO set to Reader.
When i use the account to test. It says the user is found but I get an error on login attempt.
Any idea what i might be doing wrong. I am on latest version of graylog.
It might be a bug, but without looking into this it is impossible to say. I would open one Issue over at Github for that - including all details that are needed to rebuild that problem.
I looked at the graylog-server.log and when i do the test i see the following in the logs
2018-03-06T01:10:28.756Z WARN [DefaultAttribute] ERR_04486_VALUE_ALREADY_EXISTS The value ‘20160308073112.0Z’ already exists in the attribute (dSCorePropagationData)
You can try using the bind credentials and the user credentials with a different LDAP client (e. g. LDAP Admin or ldapsearch which is part of OpenLDAP) and check the responses of the LDAP server.
As for the false positive, Graylog can only relay the information the LDAP server responded with.
