Openfire with Active Directory and it's child domain.

$

Hi

 

I'm trying to configure Openfire with Active Directory. Users should be fetched from two domains.

First domain - example.com holds most of the users and second domain secondary.example.com (child domain of example.com).

 

Users in example.com are stored in nonstandard location:

ou=main,dc=example,dc=com

and users in secondary.example.com are stored ins standard location:

cn=Users,dc=secondary,dc=example,dc=com

 

The problem is that users from secondary.example.com are not listed in openfire nor thec can authenticate to the server.

 

I have configured ldap.baseDN for:

ou=main,dc=example,dc=com

and ldap.alternateBaseDN for:

cn=Users,dc=secondary,dc=example,dc=com

 

When I try to search for a user from secondary.example.com I get no results, but in the sniffed network traffic I can see that the username i sersolved to cn=name surname,cn=Users,dc=secondary,dc=example,dc=com

 

After that a search for that object is performed to retrieve the rest of information (telephone numer,email addresss, etc...). But for the purpose of this search to the mentioned object the value from ldap.alternetebaseDN is appended. So the searched object looks like this:

cn=name surname,cn=Users,dc=secondary,dc=example,dc=com,cn=Users,dc=secondary,dc=exampl e,dc=com

and therefore is not found.

 

 

Any help with this problem would be higly appreciated, as I am fighting with this configuration for almost a month without a success.
