That error code 49 is a generic LDAP error returned when the account your using to bind has invalid creds, usually a bad or expired password..

Do you have ldap tools installed on your RT server? If so run this command to test your bind account:

ldapsearch -x -W -D"bindaccount at domain.com" "(sAMAccountName=some_user)”

Enter Password of Bind account.

Let us know the results..

I've tried both the settings indicated by Jeff (excepting the SSO cookie settings) and Glenn. I'm still getting the "RT::Authen::ExternalAuth::LDAP::_GetBoundLdapObj Can't bind: LDAP_INVALID_CREDENTIALS 49" error.

I found another thread that indicated that the solution to the second problem was to add @domain to the end of the username. That just reverted to the previous list of errors with a couple new ones.

I didn't know the OU until a few moments ago so I only entered "cn=user,dc=example,dc=com". That did seem to make a difference. However, I'm still not able to log in. Perhaps for other reasons, though:

I know I'm entering my username and password correctly and have again tried just the username, example\username, and example.com<http://example.com>\username. I'm wondering if the LDAP_INVALID_CREDENTIALS error is because of the missing OU. I do know it now, but how do I enter an OU that has two words? I was told it is example.com/Special<http://example.com/Special> Accounts.

Subject: [rt-users] I need help with the RT-Authen-ExternalAuth LDAP settings, please

These are the settings I've started with:

Set($ExternalSettings, {
    'AD'       =>  {
        'type'                      =>  'ldap',
        'server'                    =>  'domain_controller.example.com<http://domain_controller.example.com>',
        'base'                      =>  'dc=example,dc=com',
        'user'                      =>  'rtuser',
        'pass'                      =>  '********',
        'filter'                    =>  '(ObjectClass=*)',
        'tls'                       =>  0,
        'ssl_version'               =>  3,
        'net_ldap_args'             => [    version =>  3   ],
        'attr_match_list' => [
            'EmailAddress',
        ],
        'attr_map' => {
            'Name' => 'sAMAccountName',
            'EmailAddress' => 'mail',
            'RealName' => 'cn',
        },

They aren't working. Whenever someone attempts an initial login with just their username (which should create their RT account) the following error is logged:
Oct 17 15:02:29 zen-rt RT: [23131] Use of uninitialized value in string eq at /opt/rt4/local/plugins/RT-Authen-ExternalAuth/lib/RT/Authen/ExternalAuth.pm line 613.
Oct 17 15:02:29 zen-rt RT: [23131] RT::Authen::ExternalAuth::CanonicalizeUserInfo returning Disabled: , EmailAddress: , Gecos: user, Name: user, Privileged:
Oct 17 16:14:01 zen-rt RT: [24382] Couldn't create user user: Could not set user info
Oct 17 16:14:01 zen-rt RT: [24382] FAILED LOGIN for user from 192.168.236.102

When initial logins are attempted with either example\username or example.com<http://example.com>\username only the FAILED LOGIN line is displayed.

We also have our Openfire Jabber server authenticating successfully. Those settings are
ldap.autoFollowAliasReferrals = true
ldap.autoFollowReferrals = false
ldap.baseDN = dc=example,dc=com
ldap.connectionPoolEnabled = true
ldap.debugEnabled = false
ldap.emailField = mail
ldap.encloseDNs = true
ldap.groupDescriptionField = description
ldap.groupMemberField = member
ldap.groupNameField = cn
ldap.groupSearchFilter = (objectClass=group)
ldap.host = domain_controller.example.com<http://domain_controller.example.com>
ldap.ldapDebugEnabled = false
ldap.nameField = cn
ldap.port = 389
ldap.searchFilter = (objectClass=*)
ldap.usernameField = sAMAccountName


I know they don't match up exactly in terms of what Openfire calls the settings vs. what RT does, but I'm hoping someone can help me sort out what should be plugged in where on the RT side. For example, I don't know what the group_attr or group_attr_value setting should contain (if anything) in the RT_SiteConfig.pm file. Basically, anything from the "group" settings.
