I'm getting cannot verify the quality of the non-cleartext passwords error while trying to add an entry into my organizationalUnit. I use MD5 hashing method while storing password. (with userPassword attribute)
A blog post says the solution is adding ads-pwdcheckquality attribute with value of 0; but it didn't work for me. And also while trying to add this attribute; it gives a warning like this:
You don't need to add a new attribute, you need to edit the server configuration and restart:
1-Open config.ldif in the server folder, search for the string:
ads-pwdcheckquality: 2
and change it to:
ads-pwdcheckquality: 0
2-After that, restart the server and try again. The solution worked for me.

I am not able to create connection between metabase and LDAP.
I am trying to set it up similar with our Zeppelin configuration:
ldapRealm.contextFactory.url = our_url<br>
ldapRealm.contextFactory.systemUsername = our_username<br>
ldapRealm.contextFactory.systemPassword = our_password
ldapRealm.userDnTemplate = cn={0},ou=people,dc=xha,dc=app<br>
ldapRealm.memberAttributeValueTemplate = cn={0},ou=people,dc=xha,dc=app<br>
ldapRealm.authorizationEnabled = true<br>
ldapRealm.searchBase = dc=xha,dc=app<br>
ldapRealm.userSearchBase = ou=people,dc=xha,dc=app<br>
ldapRealm.groupSearchBase = ou=group,dc=xha,dc=app<br>
ldapRealm.userSearchAttributeName = uid<br>
ldapRealm.userSearchFilter = (&(objectclass=*)(uid={0}))<br>
ldapRealm.memberAttribute = memberUid
When I tried similar configuration:
URL, Username, Password, worked well.
I tried use “ou=people,dc=xha,dc=app” for “USER SEARCH BASE”, but it did not work and I get error in log:
errors {:ldap-user-base "User search base does not exist or is
unreadable"}}
So it seems, that “USER SEARCH BASE” is in reality “GROUP SEARCH BASE”.
The only one value which working in “USER SEARCH BASE” is “OU=group,DC=xha, DC=app”
I tried for “USER FILTER”:<br>
cn={login},ou=people,dc=xha,dc=app<br>
(&(objectClass=)(uid={0}))<br>
(&(objectClass=)(uid={login}))<br>
(&(objectClass=)(memberUid={0}))<br>
(&(objectClass=)(memberUid={login}))<br>
{uid={login}}<br>
(&(objectclass=*)(cn={login}))<br>
I also tried with empty filter.
Nothing works yet and I am stuck on this for like 2 weeks.
In log is just:
{:errors {:password “did not match stored password”}}
I also tried steps in https://discourse.metabase.com/t/ldap-debugging/2741 but I am still not able to make it work.
Our “LDAP” accounts have no email -> https://discourse.metabase.com/t/autenticate-by-ldap-a-user-that-have-no-email/5215
I do not know if this is still “hardcoded” in version: 0.34.2
So, do you have any suggestions, how can I figured it out?
Thank you in advance

Actually I figured it out. "OU=people,DC=xha, DC=app" was correct, but our LDAP schema was huge and there were errors in LDAP's logs, that "SIZE LIMIT EXCEEDED". So we started using MariaDB for storing Metabase settings and I saved settings with "OU=group,DC=xha, DC=app" and then manually changed to OU=people,DC=xha, DC=appin MariaDB.
I move my Selenium installation to a new server, since then some tests using logins no longer work.
After investigation, I found that the password field was populated with an incorrect value. Therefore the tests failed.
I'm trying to do the following :
_passWordTextBox.Clear();
_passWordTextBox.SendKeys("!!ä{dasd$352310!!!\\_XY>èà$£<?^^");
Here is how the field is populated after those lines:
The "!" character was the only one missing. It worked on the previous server. Some other suspicious characters (like $ éà<) also worked.
I've looked at locale settings (culture differences) between the servers.
From these characters sent in a Password string:
!"#$%&'()*+,-./0123456789:;<=>?#ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ[\]^_`abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz{|}~
All of these worked correctly:
"#$%&'()*+,-./0123456789:;<=>?#ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ[\ _ abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz{|}
Only these failed to be sent correctly:
!]^`~
I've also tried in other fields (such as a Description field) and see the same failure.
I've tried to see if the command was sent correctly to the selenium server, but the logs seem to suggest it worked:
08:05:35.850 DEBUG [ReverseProxyHandler.execute] - To upstream: {"value":["!\"#$%&'()*+,-./0123456789:;<=>?#ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ[\\]^_`abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz{|}~?"]}
It means that the server receives the command correctly, but for some reason the driver or the server doesn't execute properly.
Try this:
_passWordTextBox.SendKeys(#"!!ä{dasd$352310!!!\\_XY>èà$£<?^^");
Maybe is for the validates from field.
You can try using clipboard:
public static void SendValueFromClipboard(this IWebElement txtField, string value)
{
Clipboard.SetText(value);
txtField.SendKeys(OpenQA.Selenium.Keys.Control + "v");
}
This is written on C#, you will need to rewrite it in language, you are using.
After looking into multiple system settings i discovered that both my piloting and executing machine add the same regional settings (Format : French(Switzerland) , Keyboard : French(Switzerland), and I didn't look any further.
While fiddling around i discovered this setting :
As it turns out , the Language for non-Unicode programs was set to French(Switzerland) on the machine executing the tests. Changing it to English(UK) resolved the problem.
Probably a bug in chromedriver.
Your solution doesn't work for me, since I already have that setting set to English, but here's a solution I found if anyone else's interested.
Just change your keyboard to ENG UK in task bar.
We've seen a resurrection of this issue in a recent update of Elasticsearch (https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch-net/issues/1937).
We set the SourceSerializer when creating the Client connection but that doesn't seem to help.
Debugging in, I see that RequestResponseSerializer defaults to Nest.InternalSerializer. This JSON serializer has the DateParseHandling field set to DateTime when we want DateTimeOffset. I suspect that this may be the cause of my problem.
Is there a way to set RequestResponseSerializer to verify my theory?
ADDITION: I was able to verify my theory above by altering the NEST code directly. I edited the InternalSerializer::CreateSettings() method to include DateParseHandling = DateParseHandling.DateTimeOffset and that solved the issue.
Now how to set/modify this value for RequestResponseSerializer without modifying NEST code directly...
Turns out my issue was the same as https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch-net/issues/3164 and seemed to be fixed in v6.2.0 (https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch-net/pull/3278).
I was running v6.1.0
Upgraded my version to v6.3.1 and all looks well.
I'm writing code to connect to my Active Directory server using LDAP. I can connect using
LDAP://celtestdomdc1.celtestdom.local
but I can't connect using
LDAP://celtestdomdc1.celtestdom.local/CN=Users;DC=celtestdom
Am I using the wrong syntax or something?
Your LDAP string is wrong - use:
LDAP://celtestdomdc1.celtestdom.local/CN=Users,DC=celtestdom,DC=local
or even this (server-less binding - goes to the default DC)
LDAP://CN=Users,DC=celtestdom,DC=local
First, the parts need to be separated by comma (,) not semicolon - and second, you need to use the DC=.... for all DNS-parts of your domain.
<shameless plug>
Also you might want to look at my ADSI browser called Beavertail which is written in C# and 100% free and open-source. It will show you what your domain tree looks like and what the valid LDAP paths are.

I have wrote a user manager script the uses NTLMSetUserInfo to set passwords of some users, including ADMIN... What I have noticed though is that if I do this the username / password combination works perfectly for all scenarios such as Telnet, HTTP Auth etc but NOT file browsing.
Upon further inspection I noticed that when setting the Admin password through the built in CE configuration web pages it works.
The registry for Admin looks like so when I use NTLMSetUserInfo
NT = [hex value]
The registry for Admin contains an extra field, Password when I set the admin password via the CE web pages.
NT = [hex value]
Password = [hex value]
I figure NTLMSetUserInfo doesn't set the global CE password for Admin properly, hence not being able to file browse onto the box.
I found the following function in the CE web code parsing DLL that does the job called SetPassword. I wrote a separate function to deal with Admin cases but I cannot get it to compile. Here is a snippet of it
#include <windbase.h>
bool UserAccounts::SetAdminPassword(const std::string &passwordOld, const std::string &password)
{
wchar_t wpass[512];
wchar_t wpassold[512];
mbstowcs(wpass, password.c_str(), 512);
mbstowcs(wpassold, passwordOld.c_str(), 512);
return SetPassword(wpassold, wpass) == TRUE;
}
This will not compile stating that 'SetPassword': identifier not found. I notice in the CE documentation for SetPassword it has the following line
To use this function, you must include
the password component, Fspass, in
your Cesysgen.bat file.
I'm not sure what this means as I am pretty new to PlatformBuilder etc...
Can anyone help me or point me in the right direction?
Add the following to the top of your code file:
extern "C" BOOL SetPassword(LPWSTR lpszOldPassword, LPWSTR lpszNewPassword);
The linker will do the rest.
I can't give an exact answer right now (never used this authentication). But, I just tried to use (actually compile) SetPassword in a cloned version of the bluetooth AudioGateway driver I have and it compiles without problems.
When I tried to use it in a subproject or a regular independent project I had the same error that you got. So a quick solution might be to do this in a driver and see if it works.
Regarding the comment in the docs I assume they it goes down to having the SYSGEN_FSPASSWORD selected in the catalog though I did not trace this yet. I guess you have this selected if you can set passwords and such.
