LDAP in Free version work?

[inhibitz]

I have Free version Splunk. I have difficulty in setting LDAP authentication. I created the connection and the rights assigned to the user. but the user can not enter in web: error "is not a valid username or not such user." LDAP is working in the Free version?

Yes, it works with current Splunk trial version.

The free splunk do not have ldap (search free vs enterprise). Some people do a reverse proxy config with ldap authentication to workaround this.

The 30 days demo is really a enterprise version and after some fight i manage to put it working with a Windows Active Directory (AD)... but it will probably stop working after the 30days.

here is my config:

[AD]
SSLEnabled = 0
anonymous_referrals = 0
bindDN = domain\bindusername
bindDNpassword = encoded pass
charset = utf8
groupBaseDN = dc=ad-domain,dc=tld
groupBaseFilter = (objectclass=*)
groupMappingAttribute = dn
groupMemberAttribute = member
groupNameAttribute = cn
host = DC-server.domain.pt
nestedGroups = 1
network_timeout = 20
port = 389
realNameAttribute = cn
sizelimit = 1000
timelimit = 15
userBaseDN = dc=ad-domain,dc=tld
userBaseFilter = (&(objectCategory=person)(objectClass=user)(mail=*))
userNameAttribute = samaccountname

My main error was the "Group mapping attribute" (ie: groupMappingAttribute in the config), where i put other things and the correct config is dn

The Free version does not have functionality for LDAP or any other kind of user authentication.

but I get a log with errors:
