Hello everyone

I've gotten a cool problem configuring my nortel 1150 switch to support username/password and group password using an netscape directory server. I have created for example e child group let's call it /Base/Base2 and i have populated it with users i.e. user_1, user_2 and so on. I have disabled all radius related settings (to make sure i dont mix with radius), and I have configured the Base2 group profile for username/password authentication using only ldap server (profiles/group/Edit/IPSec..etc)

I see that the replication in the ldap server is properly done meaning that users and groups are all added there.

I configure the contivity client as follows:

group: Base2
pass: 123456

Extended Authentication:

username (uid): user_1
pass: 123456789

In syslog of the switch I see: The IPSEC account is 'unknown, uid is invalid""

I dont understand what's the hell I'm missing here!!!

I would appreciate if somebody would point me to the right direction or at least to givme any spot link in the www, to configure the switch properly. There is a lack of that kind of documentation out there indeed..


Thanks a lot guys
