Hi Justin,
Thanks for the information.
I've been out of office a few days - it seems our server admin came up
with the same solution. If I enter the following:
Server URL:
ldap://servername:389/dc=wcc-corp,dc=ad
User Lookup Pattern:
uid=O,U=Users,OU=WCC,DC=wcc-corp,DC=ad
The error changes:
*javax.naming.CommunicationException: servername:389 [Root exception is
java.net.UnknownHostException: wppdcon2]*
I get the same if I try:
ldap://servername.wcc-corp.ad:389/dc=wcc-corp,dc=ador without the port
number. I guess it can't connect to the server. I'll
chase our server admin on that one.
Also, if I don't put something in both the username and password box, it
gives me a different java error:
*java.lang.NullPointerException*
Seems like there's pretty much no verification going on behind this form.
I'll open a JIRA for these issue shortly.
Thanks again,
Jonathan
