8.1 Authentication Error Messages

Authentication errors most often return 669, 634, or 601 error messages.

8.1.1 669 Error Messages

An invalid password was used, authentication failed, one server tried to synchronize with another one but the target server’s database was locked, or a problem exists with the remote ID or public key.

Some possible causes:

  • You typed an incorrect password
  • There are multiple users with the same user name in the tree. Contextless login will try to log in using the first user account it finds with the supplied password. In this case, provide a full context when you log in or limit the search containers that contextless login searches.

8.1.2 634 Error Messages

The target server does not have a copy of what the source server is requesting, or the source server has no objects that match the request and has no referrals on which to search for the object.

Some possible causes:

  • You entered an incorrect Tree or IP Address. If you are using the IP address make sure you include the port if eDirectory™ is installed on a nonstandard (524) port.
  • iManager cannot locate your Tree or IP Address in a timely manner.

8.1.3 601 Error Messages

The object name entered could not be found in the context specified.

Some possible causes:

  • Contextless login might be disabled.
  • Your user object might not be in the configured search containers list. Ask your administrator to add your user location to the contextless login search containers or log in with a full context.
