We have configured our Active user registry from custom to LDAP.
Also select ed WAS registry from IIS Console. Restarted WAS and were able to see all users except wasadmin and isadmin

Here is the excerpt from Systemlog in WAS.

Code: Select all


[6/7/10 15:02:28:187 CDT] 0000004f LdapRegistryI E   SECJ0361E: Authentication failed for isadmin because user is not found in the registry.

[6/7/10 15:02:28:190 CDT] 0000004f LdapRegistryI E   SECJ0336E: Authentication failed for user isadmin because of the following exception {1}

[6/7/10 15:02:28:191 CDT] 0000004f LTPAServerObj E   SECJ0369E: Authentication failed when using LTPA. The exception is No user isadmin found.

When you switch to LDAP, assuming it's done properly, all of the internal user registry users are eliminated. The new administrator is the LDAP server user name. You need to open web console for Information Server logging in with this ID, allocate the Suite Administrator role to one or two LDAP users, and remove all roles from the LDAP server user.

That last is to prevent people from accidentally invalidating the LDAP server user by getting the password wrong too many times.
