Debugging the Active Directory Accelerator with the Dynamic Data Masking Server

Debugging the Active Directory Accelerator with the Dynamic Data Masking Server

Debug the Active Directory accelerator with the Dynamic Data Masking Server
  1. Navigate to the following directory: 
    <Dynamic Data Masking installation>/Accelerators/ActiveDirectory/cfg
  2. Find the sample_ldap.properties file and save the file as ldap.properties in the following directory: 
    <Dynamic Data Masking installation>/custom/cfg
  3. Edit the following properties in the ldap.properties file:
    hostname
    The host name or IP address of the LDAP directory.
    port
    The LDAP port. Default is 389.
    authentication
    The LDAP authentication. The authentication can be simple or none.
    basedn
    The domain name in the LDAP directory format. For example, if the domain name is mycompany.com, enter the following text: 
    basedn=DC\=mycompany,DC\=com
    principal
    The user name that connects to the LDAP directory followed by @<domain name>, such as jsmith@mycompany.com. Required if you configure the authentication to be simple.
    rootpwd
    The password of the user that connects to the LDAP directory. Required if you configure the authentication to be simple.
  4. In the ldap.properties file, comment-out the following properties with a pound sign (#) at the beginning of each line:
    • PRINT_TO_OUTPUT
    • LDAP_ACTUAL_USER
    • ATTR_NAME
    • ATTR_VALUES
    • Groups
  5. Save the file in the custom/cfg directory as ldap.properties.
  6. Navigate to the following directory: 
    <Dynamic Data Masking installation>/cfg
  7. Find the config.properties file. Back up the file before you make any changes.
  8. Set the log level to debug. Edit the following property: 
    TraceFacility.logLevel=debug
  9. Restart the Dynamic Data Masking Server.
  10. Open the LDAPRuleSet in the Management Console. Verify that you defined the LDAP.jar location, LDAP_ACTUAL_USER, ATTR_NAME, and ATTR_VALUES symbols correctly.
  11. In a Dynamic Data Masking client, verify that the masking rules work.
  12. Navigate to the following directory: 
    <Dynamic Data Masking installation>/log
  13. Open the server.log file and verify that it contains the same information as the myOutput.out file you created when you tested the Active Directory accelerator without the Dynamic Data Masking Server.
