This is because the LDAP extension uses the LDAP username and password to do any/all LDAP searches (with the exception of the initial search), so a database user will not have access. There are two ways around this: * Manually create a matching user in the database for one of the LDAP users and assign it administrative privileges. * Enable automatic JDBC account creation and then assign the auto-created user account(s) whatever privileges required. -Nick
