Author LDAP mapping for DN

2005-07-27, 2:49 am

Our ldap has following attributes
uid and corpuid

Naming attribute is corpuid (but uid is also unique)

I configured portal with DN=uid=xxx,ou=people,o=corp.com

I am able to login and do search, but since the LDAP has naming attribute defined as corpid, the User Manager portlet does not show the user details, since the DN as per LDAP config should be DN=corpuid=yyy,ou=people,o=corp.com
but the User manager portlet uses, DN=uid=yyy,ou=people,o=corp.com

and this does not return any details for the user.

How do I configure, so as to, make this functional.

Is it possible to modify the Pricipal Manager portlet?

I supposed you had extended the objectclass for your user entries in the
LDAP. So corpuid is also a valid attribute. If that's the case, then
reconfigure security by disabling it first, make "corpuid" as the user
prefix, and then re-enable security. If more help is needed, open a PMR.

defined as corpid, the User Manager portlet does not show the user details,
since the DN as per LDAP config should be
DN=corpuid=yyy,ou=people,o=corp.com
