We get the following error entry in the "User Authentication deamon". It randomly starts happening with certain users at no apparent clear technical reason.
The only change we could identify occurs in the field "name" of the log entry. In all other entries where the user is successfully authenticated, his username is mentioned in the field "name". Where the authentication problem occurs, the IP address of the user's computer is stated. And when that happens, his access through the proxy is denied. All other workstation variables seem to be the same (users are correctly logged in on a DomainServicesforWindows Server plus eDirectory authenticated). Our Astaro installation uses eDirectory as authentication source.
Here is a copy of the log entry with an authentication denial:
2014:01:22-00:11:35 astaro-2 aua[4690]: id="3005" severity="warn" sys="System" sub="auth" name="Authentication failed" srcip="192.168.0.x" user="192.168.0.x" caller="http" reason="DENIED"
Can some one give us any tip in how to avoid this effect of the IP Address being used as "username" during the authentication?
Any other thoughts?
Thanks!
