Thanks for the response, Scott, but after setting this in my file, I'm getting a FATAL could not load pg_hba.conf error. Here's what I tried this time:
ldap "ldap://ldapserver.example.com/dc=example,dc=com,uid=;memberOf=cn=pgsqlsandbox,cn=groups,cn=accounts,dc=example,dc=com"
ldap "ldap://ldapserver.example.com/dc=example,dc=com,uid=;memberOf=cn=pgsqlsandbox,cn=groups,cn=accounts,dc=example,dc=com"
Might this need ldapurl= in front of this?

I seem to be hung up on getting the search filter correct and I'd like to have postgresql substitute the user's id rather than hard coding one in here.but I can't seem to translate this into any form that will work in the pg_hba.conf file. I've tried setting the various parameters separately like ldapbinddn, ldapbindpasswd, etc., and I've tried setting ldap_prefix, ldap_suffix, etc., and I've also tried to set ldapurl, but something always seems broken.Hi all,I've been slowly going nuts with trying to get LDAP authentication working. The following edited ldapsearch string works exactly as I need it:
ldapsearch -h ldap.example.com -b "dc=example,dc=com" -D "uid=pgsqlldap,cn=users,cn=accounts,dc=example,dc=com" "(&(uid=myuid)(memberOf=cn=pgs qlsandbox,cn=groups,cn=account s,dc=example,dc=com))" -w current_password I always get hung up here too. The last time I did it, I used (in pg_hba.conf). I haven't used this in about 2 years so, I may be off, but hopefully this helps....( Notice the 'uid=;' )--ScottJay--
