Active Directory authentication
I have added AD under directory service and imported a group from AD but none of the users in that group can actually log in. They get invalid username or password error.

One other thing on this one. A few folks have found a workaround by doing this:
- Under Application | Directory Services, when you click Add, choose Manual and enter IP rather than FQDN
Not sure if this is relevant to you but thought I'd toss it out there.

Ha, pretty funny. When I posted this reply, the forum software replaced one of the words it must have found offensive. The word it replaced was "s-p-e-c-i-a-l".

Thanks for the post.
Are there any **bleep** characters in the user name such as dot or underscore? We're looking into another report that is similar.

I don't know Rob, that bleep was in the right spot and I thought it was pretty refreshing seeing a Dell employee being honest with their feelings on a bug! :smileylol:

I have tried the Manual method with IP address AND the other method of DNS. It will add the directory service and test connection is successful, but when I search for groups when trying to import the directory; no matter what I type in, I get 0 results.
