AD Group Filtering Does not Work For Group

[Guest]

I got this Websense Filtering Enterprise trying to make it work but got some
problems in Filtering.

I got W2k /Sp4 on Native Mode

Event ID is 4096

An error occured while binding to the directory server .ldap_simple_bind:
Cant connect to the LDAP server[domain.com, 389
cn=mrx,=cn=users,dc=domain,dc=com] etc

As a Result in the Websense, it can only filter users and not groups in AD.
Is there any feedback from MVP.

Orvs,

Make sure that your WebSense Policy Server has access to the domain and that
its DNS is set up correctly. It should be able to connect to the PDC
emulator or at least a GC. Use NSLOOKUP to be sure that everything is
resolving correctly.

Also, some people choose to segregate WebSense in a DMZ, if the Policy
Server is there, make sure it has access to the domain and that the account
that the DC Agent is using has Domain Administrator rights. Finally, check
your ACLs to be sure that you're not restricting access by the server to the
PDCe -- this is especially important in multiple domain forests.
