Active Directory configuration

Vote:
 

I'm currently trying to configure ActiveDiretory integration on a intranet site for a customer.

I've used Softterra LDAP Administrator to verify the connection to AD, however I have some

problems making the intranet work with AD.

To make Softterra work I needed to use GSS Negotiate mechanism, not simple.

Do Episerver have any requirements on what type of mechanism that shall be used??

The errormessage I get is:

Logon failure: unknown user name or bad password

The exception occurs in Web.config on "type="Episerver.Security.ActiveDirectoryRoleProvider, Episerver"

Anyone have experience with troubleshooting AD connection??

Added domain on the user.

This resulted in another exception.

Episerver.Core.AccessDeniedException: Access.denied

Remember to add the AD role to the location elements in web.config to give the user access to edit/admin/dashboard. Like the exceptions says, the user doesn´t have access.

Hope this helps.

Hi Jon Haakon,

take a look at this blog post: http://fredrikvonwerder.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html

Also, if you are having problems with Softerra LDAP Explorer, try the AD Explorer tool by MS: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb963907  I've used this to successfully test AD connections in EPiServer in previous projects.
