i'm working at a large healthcare client. they have an Active Directory controller, with a naming convention of ... DC=SJMC,DC=LOCAL (their server names are SERVER.sjmc.local).
the software i'm installing requires a stand alone instance of AD-LDS on windows server 2008 r2 enterprise.
we've defined the instance name, ports, with a DN of O=software,DC=sjmc,DC=local.
I was able to then add a user of CN=ldapadmin,O=software,DC=sjmc,DC=local ... set the password, make the password not disabled, encrypted, etc. all this worked fine.
HOWEVER, WHEN I ATTEMPT TO ADD THE NEWLY DEFINED USER TO THE CN=Administrators ROLE, I receive the following error message:
OPERATION FAILED. ERROR CODE 0X20B5. THE NAMES REFERENCE IS INVALID. 000020B5:ATRERR: DSID-03152804, #1 0:000020B5: DSID-03152084, PROBLEM 1005 (CONSTRAINT_ATT_TRYP), DATA 0, ATT 1F (MEMBER)
The NAME is a VALID NAME. Any ideas form the MS community?
BTW, I looked for a forum governing AD or AD-LDS, I could find any specific naming convention ...
