[Rt-devel] ExternalAuth: trouble getting to work with Active Directory

Hi folks,
I'm trying to get ExternalAuth to work
with RT and Active Directory. My config
is below. When I try to authenticate a
user from AD (whose username and
password I know are correct), I don't
even get back a "Your username or
password is incorrect" error; I get
nothing at all.
I've added 'Set( @Plugins, qw(RT::Authen::ExternalAuth) );'
to
/etc/request-tracker3.6/RT_SiteConfig.pm,
as written here:
http://wiki.bestpractical.com/view/ExternalAuth
I've added the 'port => 3268' config
option below, following the advice here:
http://www.nabble.com/RT-Authen-ExternalAuth-custom-LDAP-port-td19885597.html
after confirming (via nmap) that the
right service is listening on port 3268
on the LDAP server.
I've run Wireshark and confirmed that
there's an LDAP request going out to the
LDAP server at the moment I try to log
in. I can't figure out how to debug any
further than this.
Can someone help me understand why RT
isn't authenticating properly against
LDAP?
Many thanks,
Steve
