Grouper Users - Open Discussion List

[Holger Dippel <>]

Tom. Thank you. I am looking at the multiple OpenLDAP targets example on how to use the Spring config. I guess this would be the only way to accomplish a target different from sources.xml

If it's using the sources.xml -- which would be fine if our AD would be structured differently -- then why is there at all the need for a ldap.properties? Why couldn't it consume the ldap settings from sources.xml for everything?

Subject: Re: [grouper-users] PSP - subject source different from provisioning target, but same AD

Take a look at the comment near the ldap target in psp-services.xml.

If you need more, please reply.

In Grouper version 2.0.3 with ldappcng I managed to have the subject source using the AD global catalog port 3268, and ldappcng the local domain port 389. This worked fine.

Since our AD currently has multiple OUs for persons I need to set the people OU to the domain root and use the GC port to avoid continuation reference errors.

In Grouper 2.1.1 with PSP, I tried a similar configuration by putting the local domain port in the ldap.properties file, and leaving the GC port in the sources.xml thinking it would work the same as in ldappcng. I got a bulkCalc to generate meaningful output of what should happen, but when running a bulkSync, it tells me in the delete response that this operation is not allow on the GC port. This means that the subject source is no longer separated from the ldap.properties provisioning target. The documentation indicates connection pooling so I guess this outcome makes sense.

Can I still achieve the desired separation of source and target with PSP?

Thank you,
