LDAP struggle
Hi,
I successfully managed to re-integrate Jazz and corporate directory since upgraded to M5a. My impressions: I followed https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Main/RoleMigrationAndLdapConfiguration 1. The screenshot is probably out of date, isn't it? 2. Since we use MS Active directory there are different parameters involved - I was confused by a parameter called "Find groups for user" - it didn't allow any other option and I did know what to put in; therefore I stuck to default value (but no idea if this is correct). 3. I noticed that it didn't change tomcat's server.xml - I had to configure LDAP realm manually - did I miss something? When and how is used LDAP config managed via Web UI Admin page? Thanks, Roman |

1. Yes, the screenshot is based off of M5 (We made several improvements in
M5a. We will update the screenshots) 2 FindGroupsforUser -> a query to find the groups for a particular user. You need to specify a value of the form.. Attribute to represent membership of a group={USER-DN} For e.g. is you use memberList attribute to add members to a group in LDAP registry memberList uid=balajik,dc=ibm.com memberList uid=test,dc=ibm.com you will set findgroupsForUser to member={USER-DN} 3. This is one of the inherent disadvantages with our LDAP story today. You have to configure the LDAP config in the container as well as Jazz. We are in the process of evaluating any feasible solution to provide a simple solution to the customers. ----- Balaji "Roman Smirak" <roman.smirak@tietoenator.com> wrote in message news:frl77e$3kg$1@localhost.localdomain...

Today, you need to go to the advanced page to update the LDAP config
properties. For M6, we are working on a wizard style LDAP config page. ---- Balaji "Balaji Krish" <balajik@us.ibm-dot-com.no-spam.invalid> wrote in message news:frlt25$d6r$1@localhost.localdomain... 1. Yes, the screenshot is based off of M5 (We made several improvements in |
