OpenDS control panel login password issue - opends

I am unable to login to Open DS from front end using my credentials.
Bind DN: cn = Directory Manager Passowrd: xxxxxx
Error message shown is:
Check that Administrative User DN or Password is valid
When i am using the same through my code i am facing no issues.
How to change password and check?

OpenDS is no longer maintained by the project owner, and I wouldn't be surprised if your problem is due to new versions of Java. I suggest that you look at OpenDJ, the actively developed and open source fork of OpenDS. opendj.org

LDAP Authentication failed for Citrix Netscaler showing ("Error: '10.0.1.4' is a valid LDAP server. Valid Credentials are not provided)

I have tried every possible method starting from checking connection to resetting password with no special characters.
Couldn't solve the error of Invalid credentials in Citrix ADC 13.0 .
While adding LDAP authentication servers facing the same error over and over again. Have verified the account name, Base DN, Administrator Bind DN but nothing seems to work.
Server '10.0.1.4' is reachable.
port '389/tcp' is open.
'10.0.1.4' is a valid LDAP server.
Valid Credentials are not provided.
Even I could successfully bind from ldp.exe with simple auth (not using SSL) using the same creds. DC running on Windows Server 2016.
Base DN (location of users)= CN=Users,DC=#####,DC=local
Administrator Bind DN = CN=useradmin,CN=Users,DC=#####,DC=local
I had to contact Citrix technical support to get this resolved. He had me downgrade Netscaler to version 13.0.71.44 which fixed the issue. He said it was only a bug in the GUI but I have my doubts. I was originally at 13.0.79.64.

Logon failed, use Ctrl + C to cancel basic credential prompt

I'm facing problems while trying to pull/push my code into a GitHub repository using the cmd prompt for the last two days. How can I resolve this issue?
Logon failed, use Ctrl + C to cancel basic credential prompt. Username for 'https://github.com': satyendrasingh8 Password for 'https://satyendrasingh8#github.com': remote: Invalid username or password. fatal: Authentication failed for 'https://github.com/satyendrasingh8/chatApp.git/'
Fitz_Hoo is right! I just wanted to give a more detailed explanation that fix my issue. Essentially GitHub deprecated their password authentication recently (you can read more by clicking here).
Now instead of adding your username/email and password, you will login with your browser. The image below is the new interface. As Fitz_hoo mentions, you must update your Git to see the new changes!
If you are using Windows, you can simply use this command below to update your Git:
git update-git-for-windows
I fixed the problem just simply by upgrading my client Git Bash to the latest version!
When I encountered the problem, I received an email from a GitHub official, who told me the reason was mainly the Git version was incompatible:
GitHub has changed how users authenticate when using Git for Windows, and now requires the use of a web browser to authenticate to GitHub. To be able to login via web browser, users need to update to the latest version of Git for Windows. You can download the latest version at:
https://gitforwindows.org/
One reason for this message could be that the remote branch you were trying to pull was already deleted.
Delete the GitHub entry from Credential Manager: Control Panel → User Accounts → Credential Manager.
Then push the code again.
For me, the problem was that instead of my username I was trying to login with my email.
I received an email from GitHub telling me
We recently updated the format of our API authentication tokens,
providing additional security benefits to all our customers. In order
to benefit from this new format, please regenerate your personal
access token
I regenerated my personal access token (PAT) and was then unable to log in from command line on Windows 10 when I tried something like git pull.
A window would pop up, inviting me to enter 'username or email' and password. I tried various combinations, using the PAT, as mentioned in the GitHub documentation, and the actual password, but every time I received:
Logon failed, use ctrl+c to cancel basic credential prompt
Thanks to the answers from Fitz_Hoo and ousecTic, I updated my Git install with the command provided by ousecTic, and the authentication process was then completely different.
You can opt to use a PAT, but when you paste it in, no characters at all are shown, so just hit Enter.
In my case, I had this issue in relation to the federated authentication to AWS CodeCommit. The fix was to upgrade git to +v2.30.z (i.e. 2.35.3) and disable interactive prompt (docs):
git config --global credential.interactive false
A global configuration in ~/.gitconfig would look like:
[credential]
interactive = false
A AWS CodeCommit specific configuration, would look like (in ~/.gitconfig):
[credential "https://git-codecommit.us-east-1.amazonaws.com"]
interactive = false
here is the solution which works for me, uninstall Git from Machine after that install new version of it and sign in via web

Sonar with ldap plugin does not use LDAP without domain prefix

I'm using sonar 5.6 LTS with LDAP plugin 2.1.0.
The basic LDAP configuation is working fine. Sonar can connect to LDAP (in my case active directory). sonar.log:
Test LDAP connection on ldaps://ldap.mycompany:636: OK
My user mapping is
ldap.user.baseDn=OU=Users,OU=Accounts,DC=mycompany
ldap.user.request=(&(objectClass=user)(sAMAccountName={login}))
When I try to login with mycompany\tobi sonar logs:
DEBUG web[o.s.p.l.LdapUsersProvider] Requesting details for user mycompany\tobi
...
DEBUG web[o.s.p.l.LdapUsersProvider] User mycompany\tobi not found in <default>
This makes sense as sAMAccountName contains the value tobi and not mycompany\tobi. But when using just tobi as login, sonarqube does not connect to LDAP for authentication. I just get "Authentication failed" and the log file contains only
DEBUG web[http] POST /sonar/sessions/login | time=235ms
Any ideas why sonarqube does not always use LDAP? Thanks, Tobi
Thanks to Godin, I've finally found the answer:
The root cause is that I had a local account with the same login credentials before using LDAP. When removing users using the web interface, they are not removed permanently from the database. Instead, they are just deactivated.
I connected to the (postgresql) database and in the users table there were still all old local accounts. So I just changed the login column of all deprecated local accounts with
UPDATE users SET login='username_local' WHERE login='username'
As those accounts are deactivated, they cannot be used to login into sonarqube but should not be removed as some other tables might still have references to them.

How do I fix the error:1069 - The service did not start due to logon failure?

I have written my own windows service which interacts with a SQL database and updates it. The service was running fine and seems to be functioning correctly, however of late it seems to go down at random times and cannot restart due to the error designated in the question. I have tried various searches to fix this, but unfortunately I have come up with nothing. The aim is to eventually having this service running on my companies server, but I can't adjust any server settings, I am but a user on the server, so I have restrictions to some settings.
Any quick fixes, would be helpful!
Open the Services Manager. ( Win + R, then type services.msc )
Then right click on the SQL Server process and click Properties
Then go to Log On, and select This account:
Then click Browse, and add your username in the box. (Notice it should contain the domain, in my case is AD\myusername), then Check Names and accept.
Finally type your password in the other two fields, and that's it, you should have permission to start your process now.
Cheers!!
One issue for us was the format of the account user name, we initially used
domain\username
and got the 1069-logon error, then ultimately I tried validating the user name in the properties | logon tab of the Service (in Control Panel / Service Manager), using the "Browse" and "Search" for the user name and it turned it suggested and validated ok with the reverse format
username#domain
This also worked and resolved the 1069 error, and let us script the startup using sc.exe.
Error 1069 is vague and can have different causes. I am sharing my experience here.
I encountered this error when trying to get a service to run under my account (I am trying to get my services to see the same LocalDB as interactive processes running on my account for development purposes). I use an MSA (Microsoft Account) with Windows’s PIN login normally, so I rarely enter my Windows password. To resolve the issue, I locked my screen, selected Password input instead of PIN input, and then entered my password. I assume this somehow reminded Windows what my password was and made my local account more legit.
Before doing this, you need to configure the user account in question to have the Logon as Service privilege. To do this, open the Group Policy Editor. Expand Computer / Windows Configuration / Security Configuration / Local Policies / User Permissions Assignment and then open Login as Service. From there, you can add your user in question.
also check for "Deny Logon service" policy.
user should not be added over there
We had this issue as well because the account was set so that the password expired. After we updated the account to not expire and set the password this error stopped.
The account could also be locked out. To unlock it, you only need to change that user's password (new and old password can be the same).
What also worked for me was re-entering the password in the services->LogOn window. Even when you think the account and password is correct, re-entering it will re-grant the account permission to log on as a service.

Operations error : while querying ldap_search_ext_s in Objective-C

I am using ldap for user authentication as mentioned in this link.
http://www-archive.mozilla.org/directory/csdk-docs/writing.htm
Here I am getting "Operations error" while ldap_search_ext_s call. Can anyone tell me what changes I need to do in order to get the user information from Active Directory.
Note : I don't want to enter the dc name and password while binding. Since machines will be running under normal users account (domain users) which do not have admin credentials in domain.Please let me know how to do binding in this case also.
My machine details :
Mac Lion, 64 Bit.
I am trying to connect to Windows Active Directory.
Thanks,
Tausif.
You need to bind with a valid username and password when connecting to a Windows Active Directory server in most cases.
When you're performing your ldap_simple_bind_s(), the two NULL parameters need to be replaced - the first with the DN of the user that is performing the bind, the second with the password for that DN.
There's more link detail in this answer
