[rt-users] External Authentication with LDAPS

filter is your LDAP query string to determine if a particular CN is a user.
If you are connecting to an AD it would be (&(objectCategory=User) (Object
Class=Person))

d_filter is your LDAP query to determine disabled users.  If you are
connecting to an AD it would be a bitmask like so
(userAccountControl:1.2.840.113556.1.4.803:=2)

group is your LDAP CN that all your RT users would be a part of.  This
should be the full CN

group_attr is the attribute of the user CN that determines what groups they
are in.  In AD this would be member


One thing I would test is getting an LDAP browser and connecting using the
same info you are attempting to connect with in RT, verify the user you are
using works...

Then troubleshoot from there..

Good luck!
Mike.
