Hello,
I am trying to set this up in 4.2.0 and am at a loss right now what I have done wrong. I don't have any errors or any problems so far. I've installed the plugin fine, have LDAP PHP module ready, etc.
I have read this thread and seen that the plugin has many improvements contributed to it and it seems that jimbot's post is where the latest version ends up:

I've followed some instructions in post 127 as well, but I think my problem here is that I simply cannot connect to my LDAP server. My login system on vBulletin does not seem different at all, and is using my traditional "5 attempts" login. So you can imagine when trying this, it gets quite frustrating to have to wait 15 minutes to try logging in again. Every time I am trying new settings nothing changes. I am not sure if I am even connecting to Active Directory. This is what I have currently for settings:
My LDAP settings (having trouble connecting?):
LDAP Server: mydomain.blah.site.com
LDAP Port: xxxx
Anonymous Bind: NO
Bind DN: DOMAIN\username
Bind Password: xxxxxxxxxxx
Naming Attribute: sAMAccountNAme
(how does this look, is it first initial + lastname? (e.g. John Doe = jdoe))
Search Base DN: CN=distributionlistname,OU=Distribution Lists,DC=max,DC=blah,DC=site,DC=com
LDAP Attributes: [blank]
Disable vBulletin USers: No
Allow Built-in Accounts: 1
(my admin account id)
Update username: No
(I will play with this later)
Disallow disable LDAP logins: Yes
Debug: Yes
(in hopes I can see what is wrong! But I don't even see debug output when logging in at the moment)
Any advice as to what works and doesn't work would be helpful. Thank you!
