The error shown below is similar each time there is an LDAP authentication issue.

“AuthenticationException: [LDAP: error code 49 - 80090308: LdapErr: DSID-0Cxxxxxx, comment: AcceptSecurityContext error, data xxx, vece]”

However, there are several values that can indicate what LDAP function is causing the issue. Here are some general references for Microsoft Active Directory:

Follow these steps:

1. Collect the Management collection set from the Troubleshooting panel using the "management" collection.
2. Download the "management" collection locally and extract the files.
3. Find the ipas.server logs inside the management collection set. The logs should be under /var/log/purescale/
4. In the ipas.server logs, find the trace.log
      Note: The trace may be wrapped or zipped up in the other trace*.log.gz file. It may be necessary to unpack the trace*.log.gz files to find the trace statement.
5. Search for AuthenticationException: [LDAP: error code 49.
