I notice that you’re using 389 which is non-encrypted - once you get that working, probably a good idea to try ldaps if it’s over the Internet - first though, get 389 working before adding in that complexity..

Can you try your manual client with the same filter? (uid=dward at iacollaborative.com <mailto:uid=dward at iacollaborative.com>)?

They seem to want to use cn=username at domain rather than uid=username at domain. The uid attribute appears to be the same as uidNumber when I had a look at the OneLogin docs. I don’t know that that’s causing your problem - but it probably doesn’t help.

If you can get the search to work with cn=, and uid= doesn’t work in your client, you want to update the “filter” parameter under “user” in mods-available/ldap.

It’s kinda odd to use cn there, but, whatever!

If chase_referrals is on, the error is "Operations error with LDAP database.  Please see the LDAP server configuration / documentation for more information.”
