Check out LDAP and Active Directory for more information.

Hi Alana,

The link you send me is not giving the information we need.

We need the info on how to set up the LDAP when we login in the Admin section

Do you have such a info?

Thanks

Alberto

Basically you just go to Admin > Change User Directory (LDAP), and then follow the prompts on that screen.

Hi Alana,

I have tryed to follow the link

but I get the message

"here are no privileges assigned for the specified user directory.

Go to the assign privileges page to add some."

When I try to got to "assign privileges" I don´t know what to do

I have tried to add the Active Directory group to the Administer but is not showing up to the User and Group in the Tasks list

How do I add it?

Or do I need to add a Active Directory user ot the list?

Please let us know since we are stuck in the installation setup process

Thanks

Alberto

Hello;

I believe the error is due to a bug in the LdapDirectory code, which is not properly escaping that group name that has a parenthesis in it.

So, we will need to fix the bug; I've logged this as PG-602, and we can get it in the next maintence release (which is targeted for next week).

Best,
Steve
