(1) The user you provide to the Active Directory Authority Service does not have to be the domain controller's admin username and password. However, the user name and password MUST be sufficient to obtain the list of groups that every user has.
(2) The credentials you supply are used to access LDAP for the required information. Nothing more. So no assumptions are made as to similarity between one set of credentials and another. I suggest you also read the following: http://incubator.apache.org/connectors/end-user-documentation.html#credentials Karl -----Original Message----- From: ext [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, June 02, 2010 9:04 AM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: HTTP 302 Error when using LCF to connect to Sharepoint 3.0 Hi, I am stumped about the Active Directory Authority Service regarding sharepoint, as I want to have a proper installation of Sharepoint connector else not at all. Some of my queries are. 1) Why does LCF need domain controller's Admin username and password? 2) Does LCF Assume domain controller's Admin username and Password will be same as AD DS username and password ?

The issue is that, for SharePoint 3.0, the connector expects you to have deployed a custom webservice on the SharePoint server. This service allows the connector to obtain security information for folders and files, not just libraries. The "How to build and deploy" describes the reason for the existence of this custom webservice. Since you are operating without security, and since the only difference between SharePoint 2.0 and SharePoint 3.0 as far as the connector is concerned is the existence of this additional custom web service, then you may safely select SharePoint 2.0 and everything should work for you.

And I found one more weird thing. When I change the sharepoint version to 2.0 instead of 3.0(3.0 is what I need) the status is connection working! But it won't work if the Server version is 3.0. Is it a bug ??

Can you try going to: http://ctsinbtpvmtech0:2122/_vti_bin/webs.asmx ... and see what you get? It is possible that this SharePoint has access to its web services disabled, which is why you are seeing the 302.

Authority Service needs domain controller's admin username and password which I am unable to procure at the moment, Therefore I selected "Authority" as "None(Global Security)" and after I did wire level debugging I got to know that it was some security issue with IIS, Even when I used the admin username and password of the machine where the Server is installed.

When you use a browser, and enter the URL "http://ctsinbtpvmtech0:2122";, what do you see? Specifically, when the page is done loading, what is the URL displayed? The SharePoint connector is tested against SharePoint 3.0, but it's a pretty plain-vanilla installation, secured only with NTLM. The connector attempts to communicate via SOAP to the web services in the _vti_bin area under the SharePoint root site. It sounds to me like one of the attempted web service communications is getting redirected for some reason. The possible reasons I can think of are: (1) The url in question in fact redirects to a different url. (2) The credentials are incorrect, and SharePoint issues a redirection for that reason.
