Spring Security 4.0.0 + ActiveDirectoryLdapAuthenticationProvider + BadCredentialsException PartialResultException

Question

I have read almost everything about Spring/Security/Ldap and ActiveDirectory on stackoverflow. Even if I found useful tips and hints, I wasn\'t able to solve my problem.

Answer 1

In Spring Security 4.1.1 / SpringBoot 1.4.0 environment, I do this like that (in Java):

@Configuration
public class AuthenticationConfiguration extends GlobalAuthenticationConfigurerAdapter
{
   public void init (AuthenticationManagerBuilder aAuth) throws Exception
   {

      ActiveDirectoryLdapAuthenticationProvider
              myProvider = new ActiveDirectoryLdapAuthenticationProvider (ldapDomain, ldapUrl);
      aAuth.authenticationProvider (myProvider);
      aAuth.eraseCredentials (false);
   }
}

I don't run into any problem and the user can logon using the sAMAccountName.
