Hi, I have a problem with splunk that is getting too long as I can't find the problem.

I have a laboratory in which I want to access Splunk through the users I have in LDAP, as it is a laboratory, I have only created the "Admin" by default and another called "Josemaría" if necessary, but I always see myself with this trouble.

And if it helps, my tree in LDAP which is very small for that reason, because it is for testing.

"Bind DN" is generally a username or email address of an account authorized to bind to the LDAP server.
First try replacing what you have currently with simply "Administrator", assuming that is a valid bind user account.
