PermaLinkAnother LDAP question
posted Sunday 9th, January 2005
 



OK, I'm just passing this one along, since I am ignorant about all but the most basic of things LDAP. In a post a few days ago, I mentioned an issue folks at work were trying to address. After upgrading to Domino 6, LDAP quit working. Tony Kelleran kindly provided a link to the solution:
Add LDAPPre55Outlook=1 to Notes.ini.
That worked beautifully, so, of course, the next layer of the LDAP onion has been revealed. There is now an issue with some VBScript being used to try to create a new user from within an ASP page. If you are up for a challenge and know of the mysteries of LDAP, please have a look at the script and the error. I think I already owe a few folks beer or coffee or something at Lotusphere, so if you can solve this one, I'll gladly add you to my debt list.

...And now I'll get back to work on the Duffbert/Little Joe session for Lotusphere.

Looking at the script, it looks like its trying to create an attribute called "person." That's not a LDAP attribute name that's used much, or exposed in the schema, which may be what the error is trying to say. You're setting it to uid, and uid is a LDAP attribute that would work. I'd try that and see what happens.

Replace
oADsNewUser.Put "person", uid
with
oADsNewUser.Put "uid", uid

Ted,

THANK YOU! I'll pass this on to the folks who are trying to get this working, since I know almost nothing about LDAP.

Cheers!
