Re: ActiveDirectoryMembershipProvider

Thanks for your help. It turns out that I misspelled the base DN in the connection string (I actually changed the name to hide my client).

My connection string now looks like this:
<add name="ADConnectionString" connectionString="LDAP://192.168.32.129/DC=testdns,DC=client,DC=com"; />

and my Providers look like this:

<add name="MembershipADProvider"
type="System.Web.Security.ActiveDirectoryMembershipProvider, System.Web, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a"
connectionStringName="ADConnectionString"

connectionUsername="administrator@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
connectionPassword="password"
/>

I've now moved on to trying to create my own custom Provider and MembershipUser. The question I have is when and how does the MembershipUser get created and can you override how it gets created? In particular, I have several attributes held in a SQL Server database that I want to value.

Thanks,
Glenn

Does your dc=test, dc=com actually exist ?
Does testdns.test.com\administrator exist ?

I have been trying to use ASP.NET 2.0 built-in Membership Providers.
Particularly the ActiveDirectoryMembershipProvider.

My web.config looks like this:
<connectionStrings>
<clear/>
<add name="ADConnectionString"
connectionString="LDAP://192.168.32.129/CN=users,CN=testdns,DC=test,DC=com";
/>
</connectionStrings>

<membership defaultProvider="MembershipADProvider">
<providers>
<add name="MembershipADProvider"

type="System.Web.Security.ActiveDirectoryMembershipProvider, System.Web,
Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a"
connectionStringName="ADConnectionString"

connectionUsername="testdns.test.com\administrator"
connectionPassword="password"/>
</providers>
</membership>


Active Directory is running on a Windows 2003 server within a VMWare
instance.

When I run the app and try to log in using the asp:Login control, I
receive the following error:

A referral was returned from the server

<providers>
Line 64: <add name="MembershipADProvider"
Line 65:
type="System.Web.Security.ActiveDirectoryMembershipProvider, System.Web,
Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a"
Line 66: connectionStringName="ADConnectionString"

Line 67: connectionUsername="administrator@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"


Source File: C:\www\etlap-01.wur.ecri.org\html\web.config Line: 65

I can connection to AD just fine using the LDAPBrowser and the ADAM
adsiedit utility. Can anyone point me in the right direction to what
the error "A referral was returned from the server" means?

Much appreciated,
Glenn
