LDAP authentication for a user

[Rajesh Dharmalingam]

Hi,

I made the authentication work for the previous post. Now, i am facing with
one more problem with the following schema:

dn: cn=rajeshtest, cn=authenticated users, cn=abc, o=rajesh.com
authenticationuserpassword: rajeshtest
defaultcontext: o=test,cn=abc,o=rajesh.com
userPassword:: rajeshtest
description: rajeshtest
objectClass: top
objectClass: authenticationuser
cn: rajeshtest

configuration file:
  <Plugin DJabberd::Authen::LDAP>
        LDAPURI             ldaps://ip:port/
        LDAPBindDN       o=rajesh.com <http://a1.com/>
        LDAPBindPW      ****
        LDAPBaseDN      cn=authenticated
users,cn=abc,o=rajesh.com<http://a1.com/>
       LDAPFilter            (cn=%u)
  </Plugin>

ldap change:
     In ldap search, included the scope as sub for searching.

When i try to authenticate this user with the above mentioned
configuration/changes, I am not able to login? Is there anything i need to
include in filter or in base dn. Basic difference between the previous
schema and this schema is, i have a default context.

Thanks and Regards,
-Rajesh
