Yep, sure enough, if my ldap lookup yields no hits, an error is thrown by JNDI "NameNotFoundException". Yet this is normally the error that is thrown at the binding stage when the DN of the user could not be resolved. So yesterday I was probably overlooking that login had succeeded - just my ldap search was failing.

Originally I started with the full DN, but was getting
NameNotFoundExceptions. I then found this article:

Learned something from that, thanks.  I have never specified a base DN
as part of the LDAP URL in any JNDI configuration I've used.  Have you
tried omitting the base DN from the URL
Yes, I tried that yesterday (numerous times) - but our AD was not allowing me to connect without a base yesterday (same is true in LDAP Admin)

Today however, when I re-tried this approach (just so I could reproduce yesterday's error message for you), I found it now works(!)

So either I must have been doing something else wrong yesterday - or the AD end has changed (this would not be the first time!). It seems I can't reproduce the errors I had yesterday. And strangely, all I had to do to test this today was uncomment my test code from yesterday. Here's hoping the AD end of this link doesn't change as often once our CAS installation is productive!

Cheers
Andy
