Encryption of the password for the service account used in LDAPPC-NG

    • Type: Improvement
    • Resolution: Fixed
    • Priority: Major
    • 2.1.0
    • Affects Version/s: 2.0.1
    • Component/s: provisioning
    • Environment:
      Grouper v2.0.1 using Active Directory (on Windows Server 2008) as the subject source and the target for provisionning groups

      I followed the instructions (https://bugs.internet2.edu/jira/browse/GRP-122) and encrypted the password for sources.xml and grouper.hibernate.properties and it's working fine, but if I try to put the file path in ldappc.properties password field it doesn't work.

      ldappc.properties :
      edu.vt.middleware.ldap.serviceCredential=/app/grouper/api/conf/grouperDevAD.pass

      I assume LDAPPCNG is using the file path as the password since it locked the AD service account (password policy enforces locking after 5 failed attemps). Putting the clear text password back instead of the file path works.
