Hi,
I have just installed splunk enterprise, I want to monitor windows data etc.
I installed the Add-on for active director App and the windows app and am trying to configure them. I have opened the AD App and have started configuring using the wizard. I have entered the following parameters:
Domain name = mydomain.ie
Alternate Domain name = mydomain
LDAP Server:
Hostname = ip address of domain controller
port = 389
ssl = blank
Credentials:
Bind DN = mydomain\domain admin username
Password = Domain admin user password
When I hit test I get an error:
could not access the directory service at ldap://DC IP Address:389 ldapinvalidcredentialsresult - 49 - invalidcredentials - none - 80090308: ldaperr: dsid-0c0903a9, comment: acceptsecuritycontext error, data 52e, v1db0 - bindresponse - none"
I some time also get an error stating the Alternate domain name is in the domain please correct,
Any ideas what I am doing wrong here, the splunk documentation is not very helpful for a novice
From the info you you posted up it looks like your Bind DN is incorrect. Distinguished names normally take the form of.
CN=username,OU=People,DC=domain,DC=com
The easiest way to get the correct DN is to use ADSI edit and browse to the account you want to use, select it, right cick and choose properties. You will want to copy the distinguished name field.
Thanks that seemed to work, but when I go to save it fails on the Alternate domain name.
I have put in the paramaters:
Domain name = mydomain.ie
Alternate Domain = mydomain
The error is "This domain is in use by the mydomain.ie"
