Setting a primary group to an LDAP user

Issue

If you have an LDAP group listed on the ExacqVision server, and you set this group as a primary group for a specific user. The Active Directory will not authorize this user to log in on ExacqVision software.

Solution

Remove this group from being the primary group of the user, or add this user to the ExacqVision server users directly.

Setting the listed LDAP group on Exacq as the primary group for a specific user will not allow the user to log in

If you have an LDAP group that is listed on Exacq and set this group as the primary group for a specific user, this user will not be able to log in on Exacq Software.

The workaround for this issue:

  1. Setting another group as an admin for this user.
  2. Adding another group in which that user is a member.
  3. Adding this LDAP user to the ExacqVision users.

“Can change password” should be locked as false for LDAP users

Description

LDAP users (or LDAP administrators) have all the tools needed to administer their LDAP account credentials. We do not provide (or need to or want to provide) any tools to administer LDAP credentials.

This evServer fix is a guard to block this setting in the xml. If config is sent to the server containing this value, it is removed. No evAPI changes are needed or expected.
