Hi I just solved it using authentcation binds auth_bind = yes pass_attrs = mail=user pass_filter = (& (objectclass=User) (objectCategory=Person) (mail=%u))
Active Directory, as far as I know, by no means exposes users passwords to third party applications or services.
Thanks in advance Dimitrios

Yes, it's possible to do this. But not possible using auth_bind. You are going have to login using an administrator account, then do an ldap search for the email address, then authenicate against it. Using auth_bind requires you to know the username before you login.

Just need to change passfilter to do a ?proxy_email? or what it's called for ad
Hi, many thanks for your reply.
Active Direcotry doesn't return the userPassword in
pass_attrs = uid=user, userPassword=password
so the password supplied by the user can't be validated.
I used this configuration
auth_bind = no pass_attrs = mail=user, userPassword=password pass_filter = (& (objectclass=User) (objectCategory=Person) (mail=%u)) default_pass_scheme = MD5
and although the ldap query located the user it complains with the following:
No password returned (and no nopassword)
Any ideas? Dimitrios

Hi all!
Is it possible to authenticate against Active Directory, using the whole e-mail address and not the user part (%n), so that if you support mutiple domains, all users should authenticate with their e-mail addresses.
I use auth_bind_userdn = DOMAIN \ %u but somehow the *mail* attribute of Active/LDAP should be employed.
thanks in advance Dimitrios Karapiperis
