2006-09-28 Thread Eric Fleischman
One solution would be to ACL all objects such that SELF can read them, then have the app, after it has authenticated as the user, try and read something on the user itself. This way you know you are in fact that user (or someone else that has read access, which presumably won't work as anonymous).

It is a good article with good analysis. I do think it would be a useful feature to have a bit to flip for simple bind to be forced to fail with blank password, even though this would go against the RFC spec. I also think it is interesting that since ADAM is actually doing some sort of

Eric, The problem stems from lack of ability to modify the application to correct the behavior. If I had the ability to force this, I would simply require null/blank not to be passed to the ADAM server from the application. I've been at odds about the DCR myself, for all the reasons you

My impression from reading the on-line documentation is that the use of ADAM Proxy Objects and bind redirection is frowned upon anyway. Proxy users are designed for special circumstances and should only be used as a last resort, when Windows principals cannot be used directly. and ADAM bind

The problem is that this happens a lot. There are simply tons of applications out there that don't use Windows SASL binds. It would be nice if it wasn't this way, but that's the reality of LDAP auth, especially with vendors that don't use Microsoft's LDAP libraries. I've got at least 6 of

Yes, I can see that Windows SASL binds might not be universally available ;-) Thinking about it, another problem with the SASL binds is that presumably the ADAM instance must be running on a server that is a member of the authenticating AD domain (or at least one that has a trust back to the

Yep, that's definitely true, although domain membership is also required to do bind proxy auth as well. In a lot of these scenarios, the firewall is configured so that only LDAP ports are open to ADAM from the application, but the ADAM server has the necessary firewall ports open for domain
