Zabbix 1.8.3 & ldap error (cannot bind bye given Bind DN)

[Shriram.Fowkar]

Hi,

I am configuring Zabbix 1.8.3 for our setup.

When I try to configure ldap authentication by putting the requisite base DN, bind DN and password it still gives me cannot bind by given Bind DN.

Searched the blog but could not solve the issue.

I have taken the DN from the actual AD tree.

Here are my configuration options :

LDAP Host : <ip of the ad server>
Base DN : ou=force,ou=users,ou=rcp,ou=MH_MUM,dc=in,dc=ril,dc =com
Search Attribute : sAMAccountName
Bind DN : cn=Shriram.Fowkar,ou=force,ou=users,ou=rcp,ou=mh_m um,dc=in,dc=ril,dc=com

Any suggestions what can I try to configure this ?

Hi,

Can somebody help me on this post ?

Let me know if any other info is required...

I am unable to do ldap authentication through zabbix.

Try the Bind DN as [email protected] (or whatever your base domain is)

Thanks. It worked like a charm. However now another problem.

My users are in different ou tree. In Zabbix I can put only one ou tree in base DN. Any option to put different ou tree authentication in Zabbix.

For ex.:

Following ou trees :

user a : ou=force,users,rcp,mh_mum
user b : ou=IT(HP),users,rcp,mh_mum
user c : ou=xyz,users,rcp,mh_mum

Can this type of thing be configured in zabbix ?

Thanks in advance.

use the base DN as users,rcp,mh_mum it will search the tree and find all your users.
