Hey kevin, Many Thanks for your quick reply. Yes i am actually going to use SSL, i have already created cert.db files using certutil... But i thought 1st to give a shot without SSL, as the given Ldap server is a test server, enabled on both 389 and 636.
So coming back to configuration, below is what i have configured on ARDBC LDAP form: Host name: clients LDAP server hostname Port: 389 for time being Bind user: uid=test,ou=bindaccounts,dc=<clients LDAP hostname>,dc=com Bind password: given password No SSL. LDAP Server generalised timing. Failover timeout:5 Directory page size:1000 Base DN for discovery: dc=<clients hostname>,dc=com So i guess only information which is not configured correctly is Base DN for discovery, here I am not specifying ou.. but only mere Base DN. I will give this a try and let you know. Thanks again. Onkar.
