The mailing list for listmasters using Sympa

["Nicpon, Andrew" <address@concealed>]

Thanks for your response.  I’ve tried that and have the same results.   Authentication with AD occurs but Sympa uses a hash value instead of the user name/email to log in.  Since this value does not correspond with entries in the database (and changes each time) users do not pick up their respective preferences.  

 

I’m beginning to think there was some error or something during the build.  I have experimented with the VMware virtual machine from Sympa and I am able to get LDAP authentication to work fine with it.  I think at this point I am considering  rebuilding  the machine and see what happens.  Good thing this is a pre-production machine so I have the ability to take it down.

 

Thanks for your help

ldapsearch  does not return a hash

OK. Can you test with:

       get_dn_by_uid_filter                              (userPrincipalName=[sender]@yourdomainname)

where 'yourdomainname' is the domainname that is part of the userPrincipalName of the user entries for which you want to implement authentication.
