- Description
I was unable to get group sync for ldap working, and after changing two lines of code in userslib.php I was able to get it working.
The changes I made are the procedure section, and I have included my settings also in case someone is having a similar issue, or is just trying to set up LDAP group sync and would like to see a working example, and in case it is useful in your troubleshooting.
- Solution
Procedure
in tiki-9/lib/userslib.php, change line 1222 from
if ($prefs['syncGroupsWithDirectory'] == 'y' && $userattributes[$prefs['auth_ldap_group_corr_userattr']] != null) {to
if ($prefs['syncGroupsWithDirectory'] == 'y' && $prefs['auth_ldap_group_corr_userattr'] != null) {and changed line 1257 from
$ldap_group_options['bind_type'] = 'explicit'
to
$ldap_group_options['bind_type'] = $prefs['auth_ldap_type']
I then poked around in the code to see how the sync actually occurred, and which settings should be filled, and set the settings as follow:
LDAP External Groups Tab
LDAP Bind settings
<will vary>LDAP User
User DN: OU=People <wherever you want to look for people, this should be an ou>
User Attribute: sAMAccountName
Corresponding user attribute in 1st directory: sAMAccountName
User OC: userLDAP Group
Group DN: <group DN>WarningMake sure not to have the base DN at the end of the group DN, as it will not work if you do!Group name attribute: cn
Group description attribute: description
Group OC: groupLDAP Group Member - if group membership can be found in group attributes
Member attribute: member
Member is DN: TLDAP User Group - if group membership can be found in user attributes
Group attribute:
Group attribute in group entry:LDAP Admin
