LdapAuthenticationProvider

Hi

Im using active directory to do authentication and to fetch roles from.
This is my xml:

<bean id="initialDirContextFactory"
class="org.acegisecurity.ldap.DefaultInitialDirCon textFactory">
<constructor-arg value="ldap://sedc02.hm.com:3268/ou=Consultants,ou=Users,ou=se,ou=hm,dc=hm,dc=com"/>
<property name="managerDn">
<value>CN=Poromaa Magnus,OU=Consultants,OU=Users,OU=SE,OU=HM,DC=hm,D C=com</value>
</property>
<property name="managerPassword">
<value>dat95mp5</value>
</property>
</bean>

<bean id="userSearch" class="org.acegisecurity.ldap.search.FilterBasedLd apUserSearch">
<constructor-arg index="0">

</constructor-arg>
<constructor-arg index="1">
<value>(sAMAccountName={0})</value>
</constructor-arg>
<constructor-arg index="2">
<ref local="initialDirContextFactory"/>
</constructor-arg>
<property name="searchSubtree">
<value>true</value>
</property>
</bean>

<bean id="ldapAuthenticationProvider" class="org.acegisecurity.providers.ldap.LdapAuthen ticationProvider">

<constructor-arg>
<ref local="initialDirContextFactory"/>
</constructor-arg>
<constructor-arg>
<value></value>
</constructor-arg>
<property name="convertToUpperCase">
<value>true</value>
</property>
<property name="rolePrefix">
<value>ROLE_</value>
</property>
<property name="searchSubtree">
<value>true</value>
</property>
<property name="groupSearchFilter">
<value>(memberOf={0})</value>
</property>
<property name="defaultRole">
<value>ROLE_USER</value>
</property>
</bean>
</constructor-arg>
</bean>


My question is. My initialDirContextFactory point to ou=Consultants,ou=Users,ou=se,ou=hm,dc=hm,dc=com and after succefully authenticating I nedd to get the attributes memberOf from the users directory being: cn=Magnus Poromaa,ou=Consultants,ou=Users,ou=se,ou=hm,dc=hm, dc=com

Then if looking at the DefaultLdapAuthoritiesPopulator the second consytructor argument specifies the group search base, which I have non and the group search filter is (memberOf={0}).

Here comes the problem How does the DefaultLdapAuthoritiesPopulator know that it should go into the users directory cn=Poromaa Magnus to get the memberOf attributes and not stay in its parent. Also if I specify searchSubtree=true, want it mean that all users will get all roles from every other user.

Cheers
Magnus
