Question

Hi everbody,

users are authorised to access the TWiki with the help of Apache and mod_auth_ldap.

I added these lines to the htaccess-file.

AuthType Basic
AuthAuthoritative Off
LDAP_Server ldap.server.ttt.de
LDAP_Port 389
Base_DN "OU=..."
Bind_DN "CN=..."
Bind_Pass "secret"
UID_Attr mailNickname
require filter "(memberOf=CN=...)

So, frankly speaking everything seems to work fine, everyone belonging to a specific group within the LDAP directory can login and has access to the wiki.

However, every time a page is accessed, the following lines will be added to the error log of my apache server which makes m a little nervous.

[Tue Aug 15 17:26:29 2006] [error] [client ...] (PID: 22512) mod_auth_ldap.c (1249) - Warning: bind with DN "CN=..." and password (not shown) did not succeed, referer: http://server/twiki/bin/view/Main/WebHome %BR%
[Tue Aug 15 17:26:29 2006] [error] [client ...] (PID: 22512) mod_auth_ldap.c (1259) - cr->ld=224511, 
referer: http://server/twiki/bin/view/Main/WebHome

So, is anything going into a wrong direction in general or what exactly are these error line about?

Thanks for any ideas! Alex

If you answer a question - or someone answered one of your questions - please remember to edit the page and set the status to answered. The status selector is below the edit box.

Not sure if this helps, but see related LDAP info at Tag:ldap (especially LdapAuthenticationHowTo).
