profile is null on non-integrated node js application

[mnavidad]

Hi We have a node js application using passport-windowsauth for ldap, the code is set up to also use a form. here is the code

js code

when we run the application the profile is null and I do not know why, the application is running on express server however we use IIS as a passthrough using ARR. I'm looking to see if someone can shed a light to this issue or point me in the right direction to see why this is not working

Thank you so much!

Seeing the same thing.

Looks like this has been sitting for a while, any ideas?

I had the same issue and I found that it was because the default ldap query was not correct for our ldap configuration.

However, The strategy accepts a search_query argument (although this does not seem to be documented anywhere):

The passport-windowsauth LdapLookup.js shows the following:

this._search_query = options.search_query || '(&(objectclass=user)(|(sAMAccountName={0})(UserPrincipalName={0})))';

To get the strategy to work with our ldap I had to modify the query to search for "cn" instead of "UserPrincipalName". This is how you pass in the argument:

var passport = require("passport");
var WindowsStrategy = require("passport-windowsauth");
// ...
// Init passport strategy
passport.use(new WindowsStrategy({
    ldap: {
        url: ldapUrl,
        base: ldapBase,
        bindDN: ldapBindUN,
        bindCredentials: ldapBindPW,
        search_query: "(&(objectclass=user)(|(sAMAccountName={0})(cn={0})))"
    },
    integrated: false
}
