I am pretty confident that I have done the settings under Portal Settings -> Authentication -> LDAP are correct and When I use Test LDAP Connection , Test LDAP Users and Test LDAP Groups works fine for me.

Any pointers what can be the issue?

Thanks,
Yogesh.

Hi ,
I actually resolved this issue. If you have Import enabled and Use LDAP Password Policy borh are checked it gives this error. Unckeck the Use LDAP Password policy and it will be good to import.

Thanks,
Yogesh.
