Re: LDAP Authentication

Thanks for the reply Joe.

Actually, I am trying to connect using Visual Web Studio 2008. Do I need to
ask for permission to connect using this provider?

If I can't connect using this method, what are my alternatives?

Thanks

I think it is exactly as it says. The provider is specifically designed
only for AD and ADAM. You mentioned you had Sun One.

Are you asking how it is that the provider can tell your directory is not AD
or ADAM?

Hi,

I am trying to authenticate user and password against Sun One LDAP. I am
getting the following message when trying to connect:

This provider can target only Active Directory and ADAM directories

Any ideas why I am getting this messages?
Here's my connecting info:

<add name="ADConnectionString"
connectionString="LDAP://ldap-r.hutty.edu:123/ou=people,dc=hutty,dc=edu"/>

connectionStringName="ADConnectionString"
connectionUsername="cn=user1,ou=roles,dc=hutty,dc=edu
" connectionPassword="password"/>

Thanks
