hi all,

we upgraded from 2.17.1 to 2.18 and no changes in .cfg file.
We use Authby LDAP2 too and we receive the message:

   Global symbol "@domain" requires explicit package name at (eval 238) line
1.

This message did not appear before. To 'hide' it, we use SearchFilter and it
works.

Any comments about it will be wellcome

regards,
jules

Hello Robert -

I have also copied this mail to Mike for his comments.

I am sure it is not - Mike?

Both of these are AuthBy parameters and should be included within the AuthBy

definition, not in the surrounding Realm.

You can set up multiple AuthBy clauses, with each one pointing at a
different 
LDAP server. Then you would chain them together with an AuthByPolicy.

<AuthBy LDAP2>
                Identifier CheckLDAPserver1
                Host            localhost
                AuthDN          <deleted>
                AuthPassword    <deleted>
                HoldServerConnection
                BaseDN          o=easynet.net
                UsernameAttr    uid
                PasswordAttr    userPassword
                SearchFilter    (&(uid=%1)(status=ACTIVE)(services=DIAL))
                NoDefault
                NoDefaultIfFound
</AuthBy>

<AuthBy LDAP2>
                Identifier CheckLDAPserver2
                Host            otherhost
                AuthDN          <deleted>
                AuthPassword    <deleted>
                HoldServerConnection
                BaseDN          o=easynet.net
                UsernameAttr    uid
                PasswordAttr    userPassword
                SearchFilter    (&(uid=%1)(status=ACTIVE)(services=DIAL))
                NoDefault
                NoDefaultIfFound
</AuthBy>

<Realm DEFAULT>
                AuthByPolicy ContinueUntilAccept
                AuthBy CheckLDAPserver1 
                AuthBy CheckLDAPserver2
</Realm>
