What version of XI are you running? There is a newer component out, 1.0.4 so you may need to update XI + your components to get the latest -

Code: Select all

LDAP / Active Directory Integration
Allows LDAP / Active Directory to be used as a central user authentication source for Nagios XI.
Version: 1.0.4 Author: Nagios Enterprises, LLC 	Core	Edit	1.0.4

Have you given this a shot?

Have you tried specifying your full DN as the username when importing?
uid=admin,cn=users,cn=accounts,dc=example,dc=com
Also:

And the proxy can cause some issues with updating the component. Under the Administration menu, there is a button that says 'manage components'. On this screen, hit 'check for updates', and then 'install updates'.

Run a quick tcpdump from the Nagios server while you reproduce. This should confirm if the server is indeed unreachable or it is reachable but perhaps there is a discrepancy with credentials or something else.

SSH into your Nagios XI machine and start a tcpdump using this cmd:

Code: Select all

tcpdump -s 0 -i any -w Test.pcap
*If you get the error: "-bash: tcpdump: command not found" then install it with this cmd

Code: Select all

yum install tcpdump
+ once tcpdump is running reproduce the issue
+ stop the tcpdump = Ctl+c

take the .pcap file and load it into Wireshark and have a look or, feel free to PM it to me and I'd be happy to take a look. Let me know the Nagios Server IP and your LDAP server IP. - thanks -
