Connect-Mdbc via LDAP

[emanuele1986]

Hi Roman,

i'm using mongo mdbc cmdlet with powershell to connect to my mongodb atlas without LDAP and it work fine(i use scram auth).

Also, i'm trying to connect to another mongodb atlas configured in LDAP but i got this error:

connection don't return any error but when i go to getdb i receve that error.

If can help here connection string used with mongoshell(works fine):

mongo "mongodb://user:pass@hostname/?authMechanism=PLAIN&authSource=%24external&retryWrites=true&readPreference=primaryPreferred" --tls --tlsAllowInvalidHostnames --tlsAllowInvalidCertificates

we add --tls --tlsAllowInvalidHostnames --tlsAllowInvalidCertificates in more respect powershell

is a bug or is not possible to connect to a mongodb in ldap?

Thanks for the help

Hi @emanuele1986

connection don't return any error but when i go to getdb i receve that error.

This part is "fine", that is how C# driver works, for good or bad. The actual connection happens only when an actual request is invoked, not on the client creation.

The second part. Are you sure you use the connection strings similar to the sample with mongo? Please double check, use the required options, see https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/connection-string/

For example I do not see options related to tls that you use in mongo command.

In other words, in order to match your worked mongo command, the connection string should contain these options:

...&tls=true&tlsAllowInvalidHostnames=true&tlsAllowInvalidCertificates=true

Please try and let me know if it helps.

NB It's worth to try tlsInsecure=true as well.

Hi Roman,

yesterday night i solved for connection via mdbc. I found that options on mongo website:

&tls=true&tlsAllowInvalidHostnames=true&tlsAllowInvalidCertificates=true&tlsInsecure=true

tlsInsecure=true is mandatory in my case, without i can't connect

Thanks a lot for the help :)
