#LDAP

Is there a way to pull a user name and password from the Credentials list that is kept in Ensemble? Right now I have a LDAP user that I have hard coded into my ZAUTHENTICATE, which I would like to get away from. I am not to familiar with settings Global, or calling them at least.

Thanks

I'm writing an operation to use the LDAP Outbound Adapter to query AD.

The operation's settings include a basic Credentials selector, to allow you to use the built in Credentials function of Ensemble. This can be referenced in the operation with ..Adapter.Credentials

But when it comes to specifying the credentials in the Bind method, the documentation indicates that only a format of $lb(Username,Domain,Password) is supported. I tried ..Adapter.Credentials and $lb(..Adapter.Credentials)

I wrote a ZAUTHENTICATE.mac a couple of months back, and found recently that it is creating coredumps on almost a nightly basis. I think I have figured out this problem to be not clearing out my MsgSearch after I am doing 2 of them within the code.

1. Get User Attibutes from AD

2. Get User Groups From AD

So while I am trying to cleanup the code I thought it would be a good time to add a Certificate and TLS to the mix since I should of been using that all along.

Reference: sample LDAP code routine LDAP.mac

Some IF statements reference macro $$$WindowsCacheClient as a boolean flag to mark if the client calling the LDAP server is running Windows. Other IF statements reference $$$ISWINDOWS. Are they not the same thing? That is, does the routine need $$$WindowsCacheClient at all?

Examples:

#define WindowsCacheClient 1

 if 
Status
Status


I am working through trying to use ZAUTHENTICATE.mac and LDAP.mac to do Delegated sign on into Ensemble. In reading over the samples and the documentation, I am not clearly finding on how to set the Appropriate Role from the LDAP group I return. Can someone help explain this part to me? If I have a user sign on, and I return a "Group" from the Authentication, how do I get that to transform into the Role I need for Ensemble.

Thanks

Hello All!

I'm brand new to HealthShare and trying to enable LDAP Authentication. When I run the authentication test, the base DN looks good and the search user is successfully authenticated. However, the user is still not found. We have a linux installation in Azure, and I'm connecting to a Windows AD server (provided both Azure and local hostnames). I'm using the full DN in the username field. For the "LDAP Unique search attribute" I've tried, CN, DN, and sAMAccountName.

In preparation for a presentation I need a  real-world LDAP schema that has been customized a bit beyond the basics.   Perferably this would be based on an OpenLDAP system which would make it easier to merge into this presentation. 

If you have such a schema you would be willing to share please respond or contact my directly at Rich.Taylor@InterSystems.com

Thanks in advance.

Hi all,By using LDAP cache method ##Class(%SYS.LDAP).GetValuesLen(LD,CurrentEntry,Attribute) we get the list of attributes but in "ObjectSid" attribute have the SID in binary format(objectSid^U¤:c@ãºþÕLCP]). how to convert to the readable format from the binary format in cache side. Please help us to proceed further

we have a issue with just the 1 namespace, where users log using ldap but arent getting any roles assigned to them.

Ldap does work as the user account is created as a ldap user. 

I have gone through the various settings to check that all is setup as required, but cant find a reason why the roles arent being assigned. 

I am working on an ZAUTHENTICATE.mac to move us from local cache users to Delegated Authentication against LDAP. 

I have created a user role within my instance of Ensemble that matches the AD Group that I will be assigning everyone in my group to.  Is there a way to query the list of available Roles within Ensemble, and if one of my AD groups matches that role, set the role for that user?

How would I compare the AD Group against the Role listing?

Thanks

Have enabled LDAP for our numerous , Ensemble, IRIS and cache instances with many namespaces. All is working fine and the ldap logins work.

But have noticed that the first instance that the user logs into the namespace is assigned to that user, but when that user than logs into another instance the default namespace from the first login is still there and doesn't update to the new namespace.

So this doesn't effect the ldap login but is now effecting the terminal logins where the user is now getting access denied.

Not sure why the first namespace is not being replaced by the current namespace.

Hi

My administrator was wondering where %SYS/ZAUTHENICATE.mac is stored?

He preforms a nightly backup, and would like to include the custom ZAUTHENTICATE.mac that was written for our Delegated/LDAP configuration.

Thanks

We would like to use our Caché-server as the source for our PABX-addressbook.

The PABX only supports LDAP.

Is it possible to use our Caché-instance as an LDAP-server ?

Regards, Kurt Hofman.

Has anyone worked out a way to use LDAP to define the default namespace on multiple servers?  I know that documentation says that intersystems-Namespace-xxx only supports one namespace, but how is this useful?   Any workaround to say have  intersystems-Namespace-server1-namespaceA  and intersystems-Namespace-server2-namespaceB?  Is it best practice to use the same "namespace" on every server?

Thanks!

Hi All,

I was just wondering whether anyone can help, I have managed to configure LDAP within Healthshare [HealthShare Modules:Core:15.032.9688], and I am also able to login with my LDAP user.  However, I am unable to assign any roles to this user, the user  appears on the users page however, it does not appear in the dropdown list of users when you try to update a particular role in the roles page (I am not sure where I have gone wrong with this).  I can login with the user but I don't get any where far with it because it has no roles assigned to it.  Any help would be great.

Hi Group, I've followed the instructions from the documentation to configure LDAP and Ensemble to authenticate, however, I'm unable to authenticate using an account in the LDAP.  The user is able to authenticate in a Linux shell.  I have added the ObjectClass of IntersystemsAccount and the 3 group definitions to the schema.  Other than adding the user to this group, do I have to change the user's objectClass at all?  

This is not on active directory - it is a Linux based LDAP solution (slapd).

Does Intersystems specifically Ensemble support a Single Sign On architecture? Currently we are using Delegated sign on using LDAP and TLS, however our CIO would like us to move toward a single sign on, so when you sign into your PC it would automatically pass the credentials to Ensemble.

Thanks

Hi All,I'm getting the error when i tried to TEST LDAP Authentication . "Connect error: 81 - Server Down",Actually Am a beginner for LDAP Connect with Intersystems Cache. Please provide the Info to proceed further

Currently, I am working on a CSP application that is supposed to generate reports. Users will have varying access to said reports. To achieve that, I plan to use LDAP (because it's used in other systems where those users already exist). Documentation does not provide enough information, so I'd like a clarification:
Do I need to enable LDAP authentication for the whole Cache instance to use LDAP authentication in a single CSP application in that instance?

Hi,

Does calling the BIND method of %SYS.LDAP, with the username, domain and password of the user that  needs to be authenticated- the right way to authenticate him/her ?

Also - am I correct in assuming that something like this is independant to (and I don't  need to specify setting for),  System Security -> LDAP Options 

Thanks

Hello everyone,

i am in process of changing our authentication method, so we can integrate our AD authentication in our programs. At the moment i am using they %SYS.LDAP object, and trying to use the .Bind() method with the user information to authenticate. This seems to work without issues, but here the problems start.

When i flag a user 'Change password on next logon' in our Active Directory, the Bind fails with a status error: "Invalid Credentials". To make sure the user who logged in is in fact the user to change the password.

Hi All, I tried to execute the ##Class(%SYS.LDAP).Binds(LD,"",$lb(Username,Domain,Password),$$$LDAPAUTHNEGOTIATE) but this command is returning the value as 7 only instead of 0. Is there any method to find out the error using the returned value. Please help me

I am using MDX2JSON do display data, it uses CSP REST to retrieve data and uses Password Authentication. I enabled LDAP authentication for this applicaiton, but it does not work.

Hi,

I am getting the following error while logging in using LDAP authentication,

"An error occurred with the CSP application and has been logged to system error log (^ERRORS)". I've set the connection up and using Authentication Test  was successful. I seem to be able to login as well but keep getting that error. If I allows unauthenticated access then the page works but changing it to LDAP is not working.

The LDAP account once created in Cache has U access to the resource related with the web application.  

Also, when I check the ^ERRORS variable there is no data there. 

Kind regards,

Alice

Hi, I am facing issue during LDAP lookup like whenever I used product group parameter in AD explorer to search data from application I am getting empty result. If I set product group parameter as null then based on distinguished name result is generated in application. So if anyone knows about how LDAP works and how parameters are set in AD explorer then please let me know.

Thanks in advance.

Hi All, I tried to execute the ##Class(%SYS.LDAP).Binds(LD,"",$lb(Username,Domain,Password),$$$LDAPAUTHNEGOTIATE) but this command is returning the value as 7 only instead of 0,7 is an "Authentication Method Not Supported",How to recover it and why this error message is occuring Please help me
