Hi,

 

Is there are any log file for connecting with AD?

At the moment i can't figure out what is the problem. Just plain error: "Could not connect to the domain server. Check that you entered all necessary information correctly."

 

I know my credentials work. And if i try to put wrong password i get: "Could not complete authentication. Check taht user name and password are correct."

 

Domain server is: servername.domain.local

Username: domain\username

 

FSPM server and console version: 12.10.74204
PS! Tried previous version (12.00) also, but no luck.

 

Any help?

    Hello,

     

    Does it work with the IP address for one of the AD servers?

    Tried without firewall - no luck. Policy server is seraver 2012 R2, added to domain.

    Could you please ensure you have sufficient rights to query Active Directory from the root level.

    As you can see, all the info is correct:

     

    fsecure_ad_error.png

     

    IP of DC:

    fsecure_ad_dc_ip.png

     

    User has domain admin rights:

    fsecure_ad_user_rights_.png

     

    And if i test with wrong password, i get different error. Therefore communication to AD is working:

    fsecure_ad_error_wrong_pass.png

     

    So where do i look for error logs?

     

    Best regards
