I've seen cases where you need to use the testco\tuser1 format as well. Is the error in the log after the ldap_simple_bind for the tuser1 or after the user you are trying to log in as? (You may need to set Plugin-Log-Level:400 in your config to get the detail info). If it is after the user login attempt you may have your filter incorrect. We use sAMAccountName=$\USER$ for the filter. Fred

That is: CN=<user name>,OU=<container>,DC=<domain>,DC=<domain> Your AD admin, if that isn't yourself, should be able to give you the distinguished name for the user. --- J.T.

If it is really testco\NETWORKOPS\Admins\Support Desk\tuser1 try \\testco\NETWORKOPS\Admins\Support <file:///\\%5C%5Ctestco%5CNETWORKOPS%5CAdmins%5CSupport> Desk\tuser1. Maybe its missing the double back slash in the beginning..
