Issue: LDAP authentication needs a little work...

Not to worry, you should be able to disable LDAP authentication in the meantime if this isn’t working for you.

 

If you are experiencing problems with LDAP and can’t get logged in, enable ‘debug’ in the admin window.  When you try to log in, you should see an LDAP error like this:

 

Error code: -2147217865

Error description: Table does not exist.

 

It appears that I need to add the ability to specify a user account to use when querying the AD structure for proper group membership.  I was wondering if this would come up…

 

I’m working on the code today and tomorrow and hope to have something for you by Tuesday.

Glitch with 0.5 download on 8/6/08: error in config.asp: strAuth

I neglected to include the newest version of the configuration.xml file which included an 'Authentication' node, which causes the above error.

I've since updated the zip download and included the file as an attachment in the main download post as well.

Thanks to Jeremy Knight for finding that for me!

BerryStats 0.5beta ready to go!

The list of updates/changes:

• LDAP authentication for admin/helpdesk users. Also, there is a localized ‘root’ access account for admin purposes.
• Added ‘log out’ functionality
• Added debug option to admin page so you can see what variables are being passed as you work in BerryStats.
• Added original BerryStats report back into page as link under ‘Reports’. This will be enhanced a little so that export to XLS or PDF will be an option.
• Reworked add user page so it can be used via BB Browser.
• Changed some formatting of the lite.asp page so that it is a bit more legible.
• Added phone number format function so phone numbers look like…well, actual phone numbers (xxx) xxx-xxxx
• Changed BB model images to JPG instead of GIF
• Added new BesUserAdminClient functions: send PIN, send Email, view handheld apps, view handheld modules, assign user to group, assign IT policy to user, resend servicebook, resend peer-to-peer key.

BerryStats on Confessions of a freeware junkie

FYI: I posted an entry about BerryStats on my other blog: Confessions of a freeware junkie...take a look... [link] - it presents a nice overview of the features.

LDAP authentication is on its way!

I'm working on the LDAP authentication (which seems to work just fine).

I will have two user groups (maybe three) that will be set up so they can get in and view/modify users on the BES server.


I just now need to add the capability to add/modify the settings for the LDAP authentication to the admin.asp page.
