Hi Phani,
sorry for the delay in the reply. I am having some issues too while validating 
the user.
Maybe you arlready replied this in a previous note but, what version of 
Geronimo are you using?

Cheers!

Hi Hernan,

Thanks for the link. It is quite helpful & informative. I did similar operations, as specified in my previous mail, by deploying the sample application given in the article. I added a new user user3/pass123 in "ou=users, ou=system" in Directory server, and in geronimo-web.xml I added the user3 in role mappings <role-mappings>

            <role role-name="content-administrator">

<realm realm-name="ldap-realm"> <principal class="org.apache.geronimo.security.realm.providers.GeronimoGroupPrincipal"

              name="admin" designated-run-as="true"/>

<principal class="org.apache.geronimo.security.realm.providers.GeronimoUserPrincipal"

              name="system"/>

<principal class="org.apache.geronimo.security.realm.providers.GeronimoUserPrincipal"

              name="user3"/>

</realm> </role> <role role-name="guest">

                <realm realm-name="ldap-realm">

<principal class="org.apache.geronimo.security.realm.providers.GeronimoGroupPrincipal "

                  name="guest" designated-run-as="true"/>

<principal class="org.apache.geronimo.security.realm.providers.GeronimoUserPrincipal"

                 name="user1"/>

<principal class="org.apache.geronimo.security.realm.providers.GeronimoUserPrincipal"

                  name="user2"/>
                </realm>
            </role>

</role-mappings> I used Jxplorer LDAP client to create the new user users3. When I provide password in PLAIN format which uses BASE64 encoding through LDAP client, the application is authenticating successfully. When I store it in MD5, the authentication is failing for user3. Any issue while using MD5 ? thanks
