Subject: [rt-users] Regarding External Authentication using LDAP

Dear All,

I followed the link https://metacpan.org/pod/RT::Authen::ExternalAuth and made required changes and then restarted my apache server. But when I'm logging into the RT from web it fails with :
"Your username or password is incorrect"

But user exists in the LDAP.

Log file contains :
[22441] [Tue Oct 13 16:58:25 2015] [error]: FAILED LOGIN for <my_user_name> from 130.245.10.107 (/rt/lib//RT/Interface/Web.pm:810)

From the code(/rt/lib//RT/Interface/Web.pm) it fails at this point :

    unless ( $user_obj->id && $user_obj->IsPassword( $ARGS->{pass} ) ) {
        $RT::Logger->error("FAILED LOGIN for @{[$ARGS->{user}]} from $ENV{'REMOTE_ADDR'}");

Can any one help me how to change the flow to authenticate from LDAP i.e it should check the username and password against the LDAP and not from DB.

Any help or pointers to this issue will be appreciated.

Thanks,
Bharath.
