Hi,

I am trying to configure LDAP authentication with connection details within the 
LDAP directory. Actually, I'm using AD instead of standard LDAP, but I'm pretty 
sure the obects have been created properly on the AD server 
(guacConfigParameter, guacConfigProtocol, guacConfigGroup).

I created a test "telnet" group called AlcatelPBXtelnet (objectClass: 
guacConfigGroup, guacConfigProtocol: telnet, etc.), and added my user as a 
member.

These are my config files:

# cat guacd.conf
[daemon]
log_level = debug

[server]
bind_host = 10.215.144.124

# cat guacamole.properties
guacd-hostname: 10.215.144.124
guacd-port: 4822

# LDAP
# auth-provider: 
net.sourceforge.guacamole.net.auth.ldap.LDAPAuthenticationProvider
ldap-hostname: 10.215.144.35
ldap-port: 389
ldap-encryption-method: none
ldap-user-base-dn: cn=Users,dc=mydomain,dc=org
ldap-username-attribute: cn
ldap-user-search-filter: 
(&(objectClass=user)(sAMAccountName=*)(memberOf=cn=VPN,cn=Users,dc=mydomain,dc=org))
ldap-max-search-results: 4000

# ls extensions/
guacamole-auth-ldap-1.0.0.jar 

I can log into the Guacamole web UI, but I cannot see my configured connection 
(telnet).

I'm totally new to Tomcat so please bear with me. My /var/log/tomcat has 
several files:
catalina.*.log      
localhost.*.log
localhost_access_log.*.txt
host-manager.*.log
manager.*.log

I'm expecting to see LDAP debug messages in catalina.*.log files, but I see 
none.
I enabled a few things in /etc/tomcat/logging.properties, but it doesn't seem 
to make any difference regarding the LDAP extension.

Anyway, I resorted to grabbing a tcpdump on port 389 to see what guacamole was 
doing.
I can see a successful bindResponse, followed by a searchRequest wholeSubtree.
I can then see a list of all the users who actually belong to the VPN group. 
One of these is my user (CN=myuser,CN=Users,DC=mydomain,DC=org).
After the searchResEntry results I get an unbindRequest, and the connection 
finishes.

I'm guessing Guacamole is not finding the guac* objects.

I then added this to my guacamole.properties:

ldap-config-base-dn: cn=Schema,cn=Configuration,dc=mydomain,dc=org

The tcpdump shows a searchRequest on 
cn=Schema,cn=Configuration,dc=mydomain,dc=org and a searchResDone with 30 
results.

However, when my user enters the Guacamole web UI there's no connection 
available.

A quick manual search shows this:

# ldapsearch -b 'cn=Schema,cn=Configuration,dc=mydomain,dc=org' -x -D admin-w 
passwd -x -h10.215.144.35 | grep guac
# guacConfigParameter, Schema, Configuration, mydomain.org
dn: CN=guacConfigParameter,CN=Schema,CN=Configuration,DC=mydomain,DC=or

defaultObjectCategory: CN=guacConfigGroup,CN=Schema,CN=Configuration,DC=mydoma

# ldapsearch -b 'cn=Users,dc=mydomain,dc=org' -x -D admin -w passwd -x 
-h10.215.144.35 | grep telnet
# AlcatelPBXtelnet, Users, mydomain.org
dn: CN=AlcatelPBXtelnet,CN=Users,DC=mydomain,DC=org
cn: AlcatelPBXtelnet
distinguishedName: CN=AlcatelPBXtelnet,CN=Users,DC=mydomain,DC=org
name: AlcatelPBXtelnet
guacConfigProtocol: telnet

What can I try?

Thanks,

Vieri
