I can pretty much guarantee that your baseDN is wrong. But there is no way to know from the data entered in those pics. In AD there are only a few actual CNs If you create a folder it is an OU.

I don’t think so, My AD good action everyone can logon into the system, i using LDP.exe to test LDAP. you can see some picture i upload them. I mean i can’t logon by administrator or user AD into the Openfire, Why??? i have doing correct every thing.

Please show me detail to solution.

thanks very much.

As I said your baseDN is wrong.

it should be either dc=abc,dc=vn or cn=Users,dc=abc,dc=vn.

and now for my high horse. you should not be placing created AD content in the default Users CN. you should create OUs and place the users and groups you create in them. This will also allow you to take full advantage of group policy and be granular with it.

Once again your baseDN is wrong!!! There should be no CN in your baseDN with your current structure. Besides given the fact that all your users are not in the OU domainAccounts it cannot be part of the baseDN either.

Your baseDN should be as I have said before: DC=abc,DC=vn

That plugin is no loger valid. New versions of openfire support avatars with LDAP natively. Change the system property ldap.override.avatar to true and restart your server.

Thanks Todd Getz. so can you tell me clearly about Avatar ? “Change the system property ldap.override.avatar to true and restart your server” thanks a lot.

Look in the openfire system properties of the admin web page for the openfire server. If that setting is not there then create it and set the value to true. If it is present set it to true instead of false.
