I would appreciate some help with the following issue. I have two servers running within our network. One is serving as an active directory for the network.

The second server runs a small corporate intranet, i would like to authenticate users of the corporate intranet to authenticate with the Active Directory. I have identified ActiveLDAP as a solution to the problem i have instlalled the required gems and have setup the active ldap yaml file.

It looks like it is connecting with the active directory server but i cannot work out how to check a username and password with the server. i cant seem to get a list of username and passwords.

Here is my YAML:

production:
  host: 192.168.1.1
  base: DC=HQ,DC=domain,DC=co,DC=uk
  bind_dn: 'HQ\username'
  password: password

And my model:

class ActiveUser < ActiveLdap::Base
	ldap_mapping :dn_attribute => 'displayName', :classes => 'user'
end

running the line below blinks back an empty array rather than the names i would expect:

@user = ActiveUser.all

I have also tried:

@user = ActiveUser.find(:all, 'My Name')

Im not very familiar with activedirectory and have am not really sure what the ActiveDirectory tree looks like, it is however as far as im aware a very basic setup. Very little has changed from the default.

Is anyone familiar with the ActiveLdap gem, i have already spent hours looking at the official documentation (http://ruby-activeldap.rubyforge.org/doc/)
