netsight+auth+failure

[Justsomebodi]

I was playing around with LDAP integration on Netsight and I seem to have broken authentication. Is it possible to revert back to local auth as i can no longer access Netsight?

We don't have backups. I wonder if i could just edit the entry in the DB?

Since the auth config is stored in the Netsight database I guess you would have to perform a manual restore of a db backup (if available). However I'm not confident enough to give detailed instructions on that as you may break your entire installation without proper guidance.

At first glance I could not find official information on how to perform a manual db restore. This would make a useful GTAC-KB article, imho. 😉

I don't know actually. The root user doesn't have access which makes me think something broke.

Do you have enable "Authticate to OS on LDAP Failure"? So you can use your maybe the root user or another NetSight Administrator, which is local at Netsight.
