Greetings fellow Jahia users,

I'm trying to get LDAP connectivity working for a proof-of-concept for my
management and I'm having problems.  I've tried using both simple and
GSSAPI authentication methods.  With simple, I get no errors in the
catalina.out, but I can't find any users or groups in LDAP in the
administration interface.  If I use GSSAPI, I get the errors that are
contained in the link below.  I've been through all of this before with a
different COTS product, and GSSAPI works fine there.  I couldn't get simple
to do sub-tree level searches in that product, so I had to use GSSAPI, so I
can only assume that GSSAPI is required for sub-tree level searches.  If
there is anyone out there that has experience in this and doesn't mind
spending a few moments to take a look, I would greatly appreciate it.

LDAP configuration files and output from a GSSAPI start:

In that example, I have a service account that I use to perform the
searches in AD.  This is the same account that I use in my other COTS
product and it works fine there.  I can also use it in a Java LDAP browser
that I found on the Internet.  In a perfect world I would like to have
Jahia perform sub-tree level searches such that I can pass a high-level
base DN search for both users and groups and have it crawl the hierarchy to
find results.  Our AD tree looks something like:

For users:
cn=myuserid,ou=cedar,ou=people,dc=ccanet,dc=rockwellcollins,dc=com

For groups:
cn=mygroup,ou=groups,ou=cedar,dc=ccanet,dc=rockwellcollins,dc=com

So what I'd like to do is specify these as the base DNs for searching so
that I can encompass multiple sites:

For users:
ou=people,dc=ccanet,dc=rockwellcollins,dc=com

For groups:
dc=ccanet,dc=rockwellcollins,dc=com

I'll give you any additional information that might be required to help
solve this issue.  I believe that I have mapped all of the attributes
correctly, and am now out of ideas.  Thanks in advance for your time.
