OK By modifying my login-config.xml it looks like I can get portal to search for my roles, i.e. when I specify an invalid roleCtxDN I get a error message. However, it is not finding any of my roles, so I assume my roleFilter is incorrect: (member={1}) The exception is: org.jboss.portal.identity.IdentityException: No role found with name: User I have added a role with name User to my ldap. Based on my ldif file in previous post can anybody maybe tell me what my filter should look like?
