We have several applications and we are able to integrate LDAP successfully.
In application we have given base dn as ou=People,dc=geo,dc=com
and the user dn: uid=geo_pc,ou=People,dc=geo,dc=com
can able to login to the application successfully.
Now we created an alias as follows:
dn: uid=geo_pc,ou=Applications,ou=Groups,dc=geo,dc=com
aliasedobjectname: uid=geo_pc,ou=People,dc=geo,dc=com
objectclass: alias
objectclass: extensibleObject
objectclass: top
uid: geo_pc
Now in application we have given base dn as ou=Applications,ou=Groups,dc=geo,dc=com
but with this user ou=Applications,ou=Groups,dc=geo,dc=com
we are unable to login to the application.
Please let us know is there any additional configuration we need to done. Can anyone please help us on it.
Thanks
Geo
It does not work. Alias is not for authentication.
