| Description | LDAP search request failed with error: 50. |
| Event Information | According to Microsoft: CAUSE: This happens because your LDAP client tries to connect to the directory using a search base for which you dont have permissions. To access through LDAP a directory with search control enabled, perform the following steps: 1. Set the search rights and Address Book views in the Exchange Server directory according to the Knowledge Base article 182902 (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/182902/EN-US/), "XADM: How To Setup Container Level Search Control." 2. Set the search base in your LDAP client to match the Address Book view you have access to. For example, if you create an Address Book view named "By City," in the organization Microsoft, the search base will be: "Cn=By City,ou=_ABVIEWS_,o=Microsoft" (or"LDAP://SERVER:389/Cn=By City,ou=_ABVIEWS_,o=Microsoft" using ADSI)For Outlook Express, the search base is configured in the advanced properties of the directory account. 3. If the simple authentication method is chosen, you will have to add the account which has the search control at the organization level into the Windows NT global group, Domain Admin. |
