I downloaded Wildfire and Spark the other day and successfully installed it.
From reading the forums I’‘ve found it is able to be intergrated into our Active Directory, but after traweling various pages and the documentation I’‘ve tried and can’'t get it to work at all.
I’‘ve added the following to the wildfire.xml file and restarted the server - but can’'t login to the client or the admin console afterwards
I’'m now completely stuck and not quite sure where I should even be turning.
This was an NT domain that was upgraded to AD hence the baseDN of cn=Users,dc=example,dc=com I’'m unsure where the users would be in a “New” Active Directory installation.
I have made the following changes to my config.xml file but wildfire doesn’'t appear to be using LDAP authentication - it is still using its internal user database. Can anyone please tell me what I need to do to get LDAP working
I think this because I have everything set in wildfire.xml, I can log into the Admin Console, when I view users, I can pull up everything i want from active directory. ex. users, groups, phone, address, other user info. All in the admin console.
I can log into spark from another machine with admin, and one user i set up before I started trying to integrate against AD. So both of those users are set up in the MySQL DB that I had to set up to install wildfire.
No one else can log in. for ex. I set up JabberAdmin before AD, that account can log in, an account in AD called ITTemp, get this error, “Invalid username and password”
where is your ou= in baseDN? Some don’'t have it, but start from the beginning and work down.
Second, comment your search filter until AFTER you successfully log in the first time. It eliminates what could be a dual source problem.
admin is the original wildfire account. Is ‘‘JabberAdmin’’ an AD account or one of the original ones you setup up prior to changing your script towards LDAP(AD)?
This tip will tell you if you are authenticating to AD. If your original user account (before you touched the wildfire.xml) can still log in, your xml file is not proper. When you get the file right, all local wildfire accounts will cease to function (admin, JabberAdmin). Your ITTemp account is not functioning because you are not really authenticating against LDAP. You can search against it because you have given the script a bonafide AD account to talk to AD with and your dc=domain,dc=com. Try this:

Notice I added the AD account for admin console, changed the port to 3268, added the ou= entry, commented out your search filters. Try it now. If this doesn’'t work change the port back to 389. I think though the setup above should get you logged in with the AD account listed.
I followed you communication thread. th eone about Active Directory and Wildfire. I am very much a novice and deep in the woods. I did all the steps you did and still my wildfire server will not connect with my Active Directory to obtain the list of users. any suggestions? here is my file
