Fresh install vCenter server
Server 2008 r2
I installed AD setup a user and when trying to "Add identity source" in vCenter when i hit "test connection" I get an error
"The vCenter Single Sign-on server failed to connect to or failed to authenticate to the service at the specified URL"
My "Add identity source" configuration:
Using "Active Directory as an LDAP server"
Name: domain.local
Base DN for users: cu=users,dc=domain,dc=local
Domain Name: domain.local
Domain alias:
Base DN for groups: cu=users,dc=domain,dc=local
Primary server URL: ldap://ad.domain.local
Secondary server URL:
Username: [email protected]
Password: PASSWORD
I am not sure how to setup LDAP services.
I have installed AD LDS and created an instance, I am not sure if I on the right track with this however when i setup the instance I accepted all the defaults expect:
Yes, create an application directory partition
Partition name: cu=users,dc=domain,dc=local
I have disabled to firewall
Checked that the AD LDS instance is running and I am still getting the error.
Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong?
