OpenLDAP = AUTH_FAILED

[xarlygt]

Hi everybody,

I am testing this configuration:

OpenLDAP –-- PFSense+OpenVPN

I have configured external OpenLDAP in User Manager and it binds correctly and I get successful in Authentication test:
User: XXXX authenticated successfully.
This user is a member of these groups:
With wrong user/pass it says Authentication failed.

Then I configure OpenVPN very straightforward, in User Auth mode, no certs, using OpenLDAP and Local Database for authentication (I created one local user for debugging purposes only). Summary:

User Auth [LDAP, LOCAL]
Tun
1194 UDP
No TLS
2048
AES 128
LZO

Then, trying to connect with local pfsense user I can connect but with LDAP user I get

AUTH: Received control message: AUTH_FAILED
SIGUSR1[soft,auth-failure] received, process restarting

And in Logs

pfSense openvpn: server1.php: ERROR! Could not bind to server LDAP (Can't contact LDAP server).
pfSense openvpn: server1.php: ERROR! Could not bind to server LDAP.
pfSense openvpn: user 'XXXXXX' could not authenticate.

What is annoying because it can bind with Diagnostic->Authentication… It says user correct or incorrect at least

Any idea?

Thank you very much
