LDAP problem with new account
I'm running the SMA appliance, version 10.1.99. I have 2 working ldap configurations pulling from active directory - one for admins and one for our users. I created a new account in AD and a new ldap configuration for that account, which will be a read only administrator. I successfully imported the user into the SMA users, but I can't log into the console with the new account. I get the "incorrect ldap user name or password" error. I can log into a computer with the new ad account, so I know the account name and password are correct. The name has an underscore and a dot, but those should be allowed by ldap (our admin accounts have a dot).
To troubleshoot further, I added the new account to my kbox admins group in AD. Membership of that group is part of the SMA admin ldap config filtering, but still no luck.
Any idea how I might get this new account to log in?
Thanks.

I also got ldap search errors early on, but not the last 20 or so attempts. I ran the import user tool again just to make sure kbox recognized the account, and I didn't have any problem doing that.
I also changed the password to one I know has worked, just to make sure I didn't have an illegal character. - tpr 4 years ago
If I leave the same base DN but change the filter to (cn=kboxdb), the new user shows up. Why would it show up in the individual search but not as part of the group? - tpr 4 years ago
