How to make Java use Microsoft's DirectoryServices?

Looks like the second line to me. Lose the '<' maybe

Sorry may have misread that

See here for LDAP use examples:
http://javaalmanac.com/egs/javax.naming.ldap/pkg.html

Hope this could help you.

Bye, Giant.

And here for a tutorial:
http://java.sun.com/products/jndi/tutorial/

This example could be interesting:
http://java.sun.com/products/jndi/tutorial/getStarted/examples/directory.html

the following does'nt seems a valid URL
<LDAP://dc=myco,dc=com>\\reap_ldap

and this last seems a strange username
CN=tmyid

Thanks a lot,

I am reading the tutorials.

The username "CN=tmyid" is indeed strange; but it is something
i am using.

Thanks,

Jennifer

still not working.
Here is the error I got:

Exception in thread "main" javax.naming.CommunicationException:
dc=******(which is my company name), dc=com\reap_ldap:389
[Root exception is java.net.UnknownHostException: dc=
******(which is again my company name), dc=com\reap_ldap

Any ideas?

Jennifer

com\reap_ldap
could be:
com/reap_ldap

let me try. Thanks,

Jennifer

Hi, I asked my company's support and he told me that:

ADS connection url : "<LDAP://dc=******(which is my company name),dc=com>"
User ID            : reap_ldap
PASSWORD           : abcedfg

So I am going to write my java code like this:


env.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "<LDAP://dc=******,dc=com>");
env.put(Context.SECURITY_PRINCIPAL, "reap_ldap");
env.put(Context.SECURITY_CREDENTIALS, "abcedfg ");

I will this and see what happens.

Ok. If not goes ok, try to remove the <...>, so
ADS connection url : "LDA://dc=........,dc=com"

Hope this solve.

Now my java code is like this:
env.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "LDAP://******.com");
env.put(Context.SECURITY_AUTHENTICATION,"none");      
env.put(Context.SECURITY_PRINCIPAL,"CN=reap_ldap");
env.put(Context.SECURITY_CREDENTIALS, "abcdefg");

and it works.

Thanks a lot for your help. Your tutorials are good.

Happy you solved.
tx accepting.
Bye, Giant.

I searched in the web and found that the cause of my problem is
that the DN specified in the User Search tab is wrong,
or incorrectly formatted. But I don't know what is should be the DN
and what is the User Search tab.

Anyone knows what is User Search tab or DN here?

Thanks,

Jennifer

See:
http://www.ipswitch.com/support/instant_messaging/guides/v2/IMServer/User_s_Guide/Getting_Started/Server/LDAP.htm

the example reported is:
Server Name
ldapserver.ipswitch.com

Port number
389

User Authorize DN
CN=%s,CN=Users,DC=ldapserver,DC=ipswitch,DC=com
 
User Search DN
CN=Users,DN=ldapserver,DC=ipswitch,DC=com
 
User Search Filter (All Users)
(|(objectClass=user)(objectClass=person))
 
LDAP User Search Filter (Single User)
(&(|(objectClass=user)(objectClass=person))(CN=%s))

Thanks,

I will look into that url.
But for now, I keep getting this error when I use getAttributes("samaccountname=t1234")
javax.naming.NamingException: [LDAP: error code 1 - 000020D6: SvcErr Problem 5012,  remaining name 'samaccountname=t1234'.

In a separated .Net C# example, getAttributes works fine, but in java it does not work.

I searched in the internet on ldap's error msg, and found that this error is caused
by:  the DN specified in the User Search tab is wrong, or incorrectly formatted.
But I don't understand it.

Ang sample code on using getAttributes?

Thanks,

Jennifer

I checked on my computer. I don't see
"Start > Programs > Ipswitch IM Server" in my start->programs.

Hmmm.

Hi,

In a DN like "cn=users,dc=company,dc=tld",
is cn really should be users always?

Should I replace users here with actual user name like "John Joe"?

Also, my company has something called 'samaccountname', is it
a common attributes?

Thanks,

Jennifer

samaccountname, mhmm. It's the first time I see it.
I found this thread speaking about it:
