  • 1.  Unable to login using an LDAP Group via EEM

    Posted Oct 21, 2020 07:55 AM
    Hello,
    I am using APM 10.7 pointing to EEM which refers to two AD nodes.
    I would like to setup APM so that the user administration is left to Active Directory team.

    I mean that I want to define groups and policies in EEM so that every user in a certain AD group can be an Administrator and other users in a different AD Group are Guests: in a nutshell I do not want to add/remove users in EEM Groups.

    So I worked as I used to do with another product (Autosys): I defined an Application Group and then a Dynamic group linked to an AD Group.
    Then I modified the Domain access policy so that users in that Dynamic Group are "Administrator" for a certain domain.
    My userid is in that AD Group but if I try to login to Workstation I get an error: "user has no read permission on any domain" (authentication step is successful, authorization is not).

    If I add manually my Userid in the Dynamic Group I can login without any problem. Of course this is not a solution as the group is no more "dynamic".

    Note that in both cases if I look at my userid I see that I am in the Dynamic Group that I defined, same access policy for Domain.

    So... it seems that all the policies are Ok but userid is not checked in the AD Group that I added to the Dynamic Group.

    Any idea?

    Thanks, Giuseppe

    Hi,

    We are using similar solution in our company. In "Manage Access Polices -> Polices -> Domain" we have for example default "Domain Guest" and here You need to find and assign Global Group (Global Group it will be Your AD group). I don't know if it should look like this but it works :)

    Hello,
    it doesn't work in my case. I suspect this is because I'm using "Multiple Microsoft Active Directory Domains".

    Thanks, Pino
