Oracle OpenSSO 8.0 Update 2 Release Notes

SR 72335286 and CR 6929674: LDAP Referrals Do Not Work as Expected

When LDAP referrals are enabled, authentication fails for the user in the referral directory server. Authentication fails regardless of how the option "LDAP Follows Referral" is set. Also, the Subjects tab in the OpenSSO administration console does not display referral users.

These issues are due in part because of a known issue with the LDAP SDK (CR 6969674). Using LDAP SDK, LDAP referrals are not honored in OpenSSO.

Workaround. There are no workarounds at this time.
