Problem: | How to configure LDAP using ‘MS Active Directory’ for Non-US installations. |
Problem: | Names can be imported into Project Manager/Project Management but can not be used for LDAP authentication by the Client server tools, Primavision/myPrimavera or Timesheets |
Problem: | After importing the windows users in to the database, Project Manager would not recognize the password, unless you switched the mode LDAP mode back to NATIVE. |
Fix: | 1. First, install LDAP as described in the Administrator’s Guide. This will allow you to import the names and passwords into the Project Manager database.
8. Change the mode back to LDAP: 9. Choose to ‘modify’ the configuration: 10. Access the optional individual section: 11. The ‘Login’ screen will appear as shown below: 12. Within the optional ‘Login’ screen enter the entry copied from the ‘member’ entry from step 6; and the corresponding ‘password’ for that user: 14. The following confirmation message should be displayed: 15. Once this has been confirmed hit ‘OK’ and continue to complete the wizard. NOTE: When searching for and importing users, the machine running the LDAPCfgWiz.exe MUST be joined to the same domain as the LDAP server. |
