Good Afternoon: I've done this several times now, and I can't seem to move beyond installing the OVF into our VMWare environment for PacketFence 11.x. I go through the initial install, connect to Active Directory (which I can't make happen if I install using the ISO). And everything seems great.
But in the directions, in step 5.2 Connecting PacketFence to Miscrosoft Active Directory, there is a line that says: "Make sure the information you provided are valid. Click on the Test button to validate the provided information. If you see the message 'Success! LDAP connect, bind and search successful' - you have properly configured your Microsoft Active Directory authentication source. Save your new authentication source by clicking on the Save button." And in no place do I find that there is Test button. So I've tried testing outside of PacketFence using ntlm_auth, and I've tried to test using radtest as well as wbinfo. And I get errors on all of those. I have found that winbind isn't loaded by default. I'm not sure if this is intentional or not, but winbind seems to be a necessary component for packetfence to load. I am also finding that wbinfo -u and wbinfo -g both return errors. In the case of wbinfo -u I get "Error looking up domain users". And I get something similar for wbinfo -g. I'm not really a linux guy, and I need a little direction here as to how I can test that the AD connection really is working. Thanks. ******************************** David A.
