Some AD servers are configured to require that the User DN be provided in a different format than expected. The expected format is typically something similar to the following:
CN=%username%,CN=Users,DC=ad,DC=domain,DC=com
To test a User DN you can click the "Test parameters" button in the "LDAP User Authentication" panel and enter your username and password. If there is an error in authentication this will be logged to the service_error.log file found in your JSCAPE Secure FTP Server installation directory.
A common error is something similar to the following:
javax.naming.AuthenticationException: [LDAP: error code 49 - 80090308:
This error means that the authentication credentials provided were not valid according to the AD server. In this case you may need to change the format of your User DN to the following:
%username%@ad.domain.com
where %username% is the username used for accessing JSCAPE Secure FTP Server services, and "ad.domain.com" is the zone for your AD server.
CN=%username%,CN=Users,DC=ad,DC=domain,DC=com
