i am using vCenter as appliance and openLDAP installed on SUSE linux.
I am able to connect to openLDAP but for some reason i am not able to see the users in Vcenter.

Hi Alessandro.
Your post was showing AD as a LDAP services.
Actually, I downloaded openldap source code, compelled and install it on suse linux.
I am using Oracle Berkeley DB as database.
when I connect to my ldap using jxplorer i am able to connect with no issue. When i connect using vCenter, i am able to add the identity source but i am not able to see any user accounts.

userAccountControl pwdAccountLockedTime ????? I am not sure
Do you have the correct base DN for users / groups?
Can you post a screenshot of the user account page where it is blank? What happen if you click on "test connection" on the identity source page?

How is this going?
