Internal Directory with LDAP Auth not working,Too many users using LDAP

Question

Doing a test set up. If I set up as LDAP or AD (LDAP as well) and set it up as follows ....

Base DN - dc=foo,dc=bar,dc=tld
...
Additional Group DN - CN=jiraUsers,OU=GroupA,OU=InternalGroups

... it works, but it dumps our whole directory into the users

If I do Internal with LDAP Auth (**PREFERRED**) using the following:

Base DN - CN=jiraUsers,OU=GroupA,OU=InternalGroups,dc=foo,dc=bar,dc=tld

I can't get it to authenticate ... using 'copy user on login' or not.

I need it to only authenticate users in that group ... Any ideas why the second one wouldn't work or how I can get it to only sync/import the users in that group?

Yes, I did have that set up.

I also tried sAMAccountName as the 'User Name RDN Attribute' as well as 'cn' ... but no dice.

I've bought my license, so I will be filing a ticket with them.

Thanks ...

That's strange, it should be subtree searching.

When you were using "copy user at login" were you also specifying jira-users as a default group? It would need that mapping as users need to be in jira-users to be able to log in.

In the internal Jira Directory with LDAP Authentication ....

even setting the base DN to the root (just dc=foo...) doesn't work. Neither does

OU=InternalUsers,dc=foo ...

Tried the same with LDAP (Active Directory) and ...

Base DN of

OU=InternalUsers,dc=foo,dc=bar,dc=tld

... AND ...

(&(objectCategory=Person)(sAMAccountName=*)(memberOf=jiraUsers))

in User Schema ...

Neither of them work.

No errors in catalina.out either way. The only thing that seems to work is putting users directly into the OUs and pointing directly to those OUs (no very scalable or flexible)
