It’s actually pretty easy: once the server can read the edirectory credentials, create an OD group in workgroup manager and then in that group’s membership list, click the + button then on the new user/groups sidebar change the node from LDAPv3/127.0.0.1 to LDAPv3/your edirectory server’s IP. Then type the username in the box for the user you want to look for, once it appears in the list below drag it into your OD group. I’ve had this working fine without extending the edirectory schema at all. Hope that helps!

oh right ok, sorry. :o) Maybe i should have read your post properly!

Well, is the site configuration set up ok? I’m just wondering if it’s worth deleting the current configuration and making a new one with a different name? I might do that to start with. I does happen to me occasionally, where it doesn’t show up the web site config name under drop down box. But then later it appears without me doing anything so i’m not sure what that is. Have you tried the usual permissions fix etc? Sorry if thats patronising, i don’t mean to be!

Have you turned on any other services for the website other than wiki/blog? Like calendar or webmail? And you’ve turned off digest authentication right?

Otherwise I’d try doing it on a test server, maybe a virtual one now thats allowed, to see if that does anything different. Do you have the spare capacity to image this server onto another box so you can really mess around with it?

Hiya, the wiki/blog stuff needs to be set up on a OD group as it can’t attribute the cirrect settings to a remote group. So, create a group for the wiki/blog in your normal OD list and drag in the ldap group as a member of that OD group. I have that working just fine with Active Directory authentication (kinda ldap).

Hope that helps!

Hi Joel, yeah, i’ve been thinking about it all evening and i think you may be right. I think what i’ll do is using DirXML, create a flat copy of our rather highly structured eDir on a separate tree so i can keep the schema extensions away from the live university tree as our central network people are wary of me upgrading the central schema just for our macs..
I’ll post back if i get any where..

Thanks, Dave

Hi I have access to one of the noisey little monsters. What kind of stuff would you like to know?

it sounds like you need to change the subnet mask for the card that you want to connect to the .1 router as entering 255.255.255.0 will default the system to look for a .254 router id.
You need to download a subnet calculator from versiontracker or something to work out what the subnet mask should be.
Hope that helps.
