If a user exists and has a valid group to Splunk role map, they will be able to authenticate. </P> <P>I suspect you haven't mapped your LDAP Groups to Splunk Roles.</P> <P>See the docs at: <A href="http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/6.3.2/Security/SetupuserauthenticationwithLDAP">http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/6.3.2/Security/SetupuserauthenticationwithLDAP</A></P> Thu, 28 Jan 2016 23:57:27 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Security/How-to-create-a-user-in-Splunk-with-LDAP-authentication/m-p/250306#M6901 ckurtz 2016-01-28T23:57:27Z
