Build Forge LDAP configuration


Andreas Eisenhoffer (15167) | asked Jun 24 '13, 9:11 a.m.
I've created an IBM Bluegroup named 'fds_buildforge' (with 3 members). Now Buildforge Login should check user is member of that group before getting access to the Build Forge Management console.
Need help how to set the LDAP domain properties in Build Forge.
ldapsearch -x -h bluepages.ibm.com -b cn=fds_buildforge,ou=memberlist,ou=ibmgroups,o=ibm.com
shows following result:
# extended LDIF
#
# LDAPv3
# base <cn=fds_buildforge,ou=memberlist,ou=ibmgroups,o=ibm.com> with scope subtree
# filter: (objectclass=*)
# requesting: ALL
#

# fds_buildforge, memberlist, ibmgroups, ibm.com
dn: cn=fds_buildforge,ou=memberlist,ou=ibmgroups,o=ibm.com
objectClass: ibm-nestedGroup
objectClass: groupOfUniqueNames
objectClass: top
ou: memberlist
ou: ibmgroups
o: ibm.com
cn: fds_buildforge
uniquemember: uid=025576724,c=de,ou=bluepages,o=ibm.com
uniquemember: uid=109936724,c=de,ou=bluepages,o=ibm.com
uniquemember: uid=108542724,c=de,ou=bluepages,o=ibm.com

# search result
search: 2
result: 0 Success

# numResponses: 2
# numEntries: 1

Thanks for any help in advance

Going over the ldapsearch results, you may want to use the following settings for your Build Forge LDAP configuration group options.

You will need to ensure the Group Unique Identifier list the keyword that list the user's LDAP identification (uniquemember) against the keyword that is associated with the user's LDAP record.
Potentially from the LDAP group results listed, this should be "dn", but if not you will need to contact an LDAP administrator to verify which user LDAP record object is associated with the group LDAP record.

ie:
Group Search Base: cn=fds_buildforge,ou=memberlist,ou=ibmgroups,o=ibm.com
Group Unique Identifier: uniquemember=%dn%
