Hi,

I'm new to owncloud and just trying it out.

I've enabled user LDAP authentication. The LDAP server is Active Directory.

My ownCloud LDAP web config contains:

LDAP BASIC:
        host: domain.org
        base dn: cn=users,dc=domain,dc=org
        User Login Filter: sAMAccountName=%uid
        User List Filter: objectClass=person
ADVANCED:
        DIRECTORY SETTINGS:
                User Display Name Field: displayname
                Base User Tree: cn=users,dc=hospitalmanacor,dc=org

When I go to "USERS" I can see a listing of all AD users within OwnCloud.
However, I can't do the following:

- I can only list the first 40 or so users but there's no way I can list more 
(I have around a 1000 entries in AD). Is there a "next page" button I'm unable 
to find? Is there a search field I can use to search for a particular user 
within LDAP (tried the search field in the top-right corner but didn't work)
- When listing all users, the second column ("Display Name") correctly displays 
the displayName attribute. However, the first column ("Login Name") shows a 
long ID string such as "0B0F75C7-FCE9-458A-8D58-B8E9CB3F71A7" when it really 
should be displaying the user login name (eg. value of sAMAccountName).

In any case, AD user authentication works when trying to login from the 
OwnCloud login page.

Also, LDAP works fine but LDAPS doesn't. I have a self-signed AD server 
certificate and it's listening on the standard 636 port. I tried host: 
ldaps://domain.org with and without "Advanced/Use TLS" but it gave me a 
"connection OK but Bind failure" even if I "Turn off SSL certificate 
validation". Any ideas?

Finally, I'd like each AD user to mount an external directory via SMB/CIFS.
>From the server command line where ownCloud is installed, I know I can run 
>something like:
smbclient //inf-bl05/usuaris -U username
and it works fine.
However, if I go to "Personal" within the user's owncloud web UI and set:
"External Storage" -> SMB/CIFS -> Configuration: \\smbserver -> username -> 
userpassword -> smbsharename -> /username
the user is unable to access the SMB share when clicking on ownCloud's "Files" 
icon.

What am I doing wrong and how can I fix this?

Also, can the ownCloud Admin setup a default SMB external storage for EVERY 
AD/LDAP user that logs into ownCloud but would require the user's credentials?
For example, suppose \\smbserver\users is a share that contains several user 
home directories. Obviously there's a subdir for each user within this share 
with adequate permissions.
I'd like ownCloud Admin to define the external storage  \\smbserver\users for 
everyone but each user will then have to login with his/her credentials in 
order to access their private folders within.
Is this possible?

Thanks,

Vieri
