I'm trying to set up LDAP authentication and need some assistance. Where do I go for assistance?

Because LDAP implementations are so unique and flexible, there is no single configuration that will work for everyone. You should refer to the documentation and go through it step-by-step to set it up:

http://www.splunk.com/base/Documentation/4.1/Admin/SetupuserauthenticationwithLDAP

The authentication.conf.example page also provides 3 examples of canned LDAP configuration for AD, Sun/iPlanet and Openldap servers: http://www.splunk.com/base/Documentation/4.1/Admin/authenticationconf

If you still need assistance after you've made an honest effort to get it working then feel free to file a support ticket.
