integrating with just active directory

[crafty]

Configuration: JasperServer 2.1 (Acegi 1.0.1)

I am trying to change my webapp to authenticate against Microsoft Active Directory.  My external user is

cn=admin,cn=users,dc=maxview,dc=test

I am having trouble properly configuring DefaultLdapAuthoritiesPopulator.

I was trying to use this resource as a guide even though it is for a newer version of JasperServer.

I also looked at:

http://www.eng.utah.edu/~ryant/mediawiki-1.15.4/index.php/Gabriel_Mongefranco%27s_Guide_to_LDAP_Authentication_for_Jasperserver

My current error is:

17:25:06,270  WARN LoggerListener,http-8082-1:55 - Authentication event AuthenticationFailureBadCredentialsEvent: admin; details: org.acegisecurity.ui.WebAuthenticationDetails@12afc: RemoteIpAddress: 131.199.122.226; SessionId: E92EEFEB55B39282FA1EE321B6959CEE; exception: Bad credentials

(I know that I am typing the correct login/password so I am guessing that I have configured something improperly.)

The application-Security.xml is attached.

I would appreciate some guidance.

I was able to resolve the issue by specifying the managerDn differently in the initialDirContxtFactory bean. 

Instead of

property name="managerDn"><value>cn=admin,dc=company,dc=test</value></property>

use:

<property name="managerDn"><value>admin@company.test</value></property>

 

Note: I was using ActiveDirectory Server 2008. I am not sure if this works for other versions.
