I'm stuck. I've been asked to set up an LDAP connection between a customer's web app and their AD.

They have provided the following info (some of which has been changed so I can plaster on ocUK!).

Group: EU Something Users
Base DN: OU=Security Groups,OU=Infrastructure,OU=SOMETHING,DC=domainname,DC=local

The application in which I am adding the LDAP config has two fields:

Base DN - which includes DC=domain,DC=local
Filter - which doesn't include anything. I understand from the app's documentation I should add something like objectClass=????

Including the above Base DN and leaving filter blank works - but they only want to include users belonging to the Group 'EU Something Users'.

Do I need more information from them RE objectClass - should EU Something Users have an associated objectClass or do I have all the info I need but need help in understanding it?

Any help will be greatly appreciated - thanks.
 
Thanks Uhtred. I'll give that a go. The filter's not mandatory in the sense it must have information but they want to limit the amount of users added to the app using the filter. Takes the number of users down from 1,000+ to just a handful.
