yeah I did  - First intial, last name - I tried a bunch of different user names and the admin account with no luck. I ended up skipping past all that - I can get to the log in screen - But, ya know cant log in or anything - Oh well for right now - Frustrated - Thanks for your help. I will give it another go later.

Okay - This is completely driving me insane - haha - I went as far as formatting the whole "server" (windows XP Pro). I cannot add a user admin - I get the error No username was provided or the specified username was not found.

I dont understand cause I had this working - Except for the fact of not seeing some users in the shared group.

My base DN is equal to were all my users are located - the admin is in the default user group - (I created a new user - being that the admin password is shown in plain txt)

After not being able to add a admin - I just click on the admin account link on the right hand side - I am unable to to change any passwords - So, I just click skip this step - Then click log into admin console - But cannot log in.

So, I am using the latest version of OpenFire on windows xp pro - Ldap server has no firewall running (for testing at this point) - Using the embeded db (for now)

Anyway - Just kind of frustrating knowing that I did have this working at one point -
