LDAP configuration

Hi,

I established connection to Microsoft Active Directory on Jazz Team Server 1.0.1. I also accessed AD users, and added some of them to Project Area as a members. I tried to log in with some of AD users, but I couldn't! I read that I must configure Web Containter for LDAP in Tomcat (server.xml), but I found different insructions about parameters which must be configured:

<Realm>

Can anyone tell me which of these parameters are needed and is this solution for my problem?

Thanks,

Do your LDAP group names match the Jazz group names exactly?
(JazzAdmins, JazzUsers).

If the group names don't match the Jazz groups exactly you would need to
update the web.xml in the jazz.war file to handle the differences.
https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Main/LDAP4Dummies should have more
details about that process.
