[jboss-user] LDAP configuration issues, need assistance.

[Aurynn Shaw]

My setup is running Jboss 4.0.4, Tomcat 5.5.20, and Java 1.5.0_11 on  
CentOS 4.4.

I cannot get LDAP to properly authenticate my users. This is an  
existing directory, so I can't really migrate it. It looks like a  
problem with roles not being loaded correctly, as tracing with a  
debugger revealed, as well as setting up of a "basic" Postgres  
authentication policy, which worked properly.

I'm guessing I misconfigured my policy, but I'm not certain how. I've  
read the documentation many times over, and haven't been able to come  
up with anything. Anything else needed can be provided.

Thanks,
Aurynn

My LDAP login policy for JBoss is:

     <application-policy name="example">
         <authentication>
             <login-module  
code="org.jboss.security.auth.spi.LdapLoginModule" flag="required">
                 <module-option  
name="java.naming.factory.initial">com.sun.jndi.ldap.LdapCtxFactory</ 
module-option>
                 <module-option  
name="java.naming.provider.url">ldap://127.0.0.1:389</module-option>
                 <module-option  
name="java.naming.security.authentication">simple</module-option>
                 <module-option  
name="java.naming.security.principal">cn=Administrator,ou=Roles,dc=examp 
le,dc=com</module-option>
                 <module-option  
name="java.naming.security.credentials">xxxx</module-option>
                 <module-option name="principalDNPrefix">uid=</module- 
option>
                 <module-option  
name="principalDNSuffix">,ou=People,dc=example,dc=com</module-option>
                 <module-option  
name="rolesCtxDn">ou=Roles,dc=example,dc=com</module-option>
                 <module-option name="roleAttributeID">cn</module- 
option>
                 <module-option name="roleAttributeIsDN">true</module- 
option>
                 <module-option name="matchOnUserDN">true</module- 
option>
                 <module-option name="uidAttributeID">uniqueMember</ 
module-option>
                 <module-option name =  
"unauthenticatedIdentity">nobody</module-option>
             </login-module>
         </authentication>
     </application-policy>
