Unable to log into the RSA security console with old admin accounts

Jump to solution

Hi,

I am unable to log into the security console with AD accounts that have been previously  added to the SuperAdmin group or any other group.

 

It works If I create a new user within AD and add it to the group. It doesn't work for the 10+ admins that were added to the group years ago. I've tried to remove/re-add the users and I've cleared the password cache and rebooted the appliance.

 

Any ideas?

 

Thanks in advance

I've worked it out.

 

The RSA password policy was set to Require periodic password changes which wasnt in line with our AD policy

Log into security console, as an internal database superadmin.

 

Run reports, real time, authentication activity report and system activity report. start them both

 

Use a different browser, and now try to log in with one of the accounts having problems, what

shows up in the two real time monitors ?

Hi Edward,

 

I was actually trying this already while reading your reply.

 

The new account works. "Authentication method success" It uses LDAP_Password, security domain "System Domain"

 

The old account fails "Authentication method failed" It uses LDAP_Password, security domain "System Domain"

 

Nothing is displayed in the System activity report

 

Thanks

Chris
