Question

Dialup - FortiClient (Authentication with Windows AD)

I am trying to setup the Dialup - FortiClient (Windows, Mac OS, Android) but I cannot get the authentication to work. I get invalid credentials and the logging on the fortigate only shows a dpd_failure.

 

I have the LDAP server and SSO setup appropriately as I am logging AD Users with a policy.

 

Anyone have knowledge on using the forticlient for dialup and using Windows AD account to authenticate?

    I got this working for both Dialup and SSL.

     

    The issue was resolved via putting sAMAccountName in the Common Name Identifier, making sure DC=temp,DC=local in the Distinguished Name field (temp and local can be replaced with your domain info), and in the user DN for the user I was using I did a dsquery (dsquery user dc=temp,dc=local -name useryouwanttoquery) and got the USER DN.

     

    Anyway all is working now.
