Javith — Thu, 05 Nov 2015 08:03:21 GMT

Hi All,

I have configured everything correct. But no entry in LDAP server security logs while I try to login paloalto Web UI using LDAP profile.

Here at pan I can retrieve the all group user. I have configured the auth.

Profile to 'all' entry in allow list..tried both domain\username(captive portal working fine with this format) and username alone..Pls suggest

admin@paloalto> tail follow yes mp-log authd.log

Can you share the authentication profile that you have created for the authentication to GUI.

make sure that the authentication profile has a login attribute "sAMAcount" which is case sensitive, also when you add a new administrator add it only by username that is available in the LDAP server "note that there is no autocompletion" , the firewall will authenticate this user using the LDAP server.
