I have added the LDAP sensor to my Windows Server 2008 machine. However, it says the authentication fails. I am using the following:
Port: 389
Distinguished Name: cn=Administrator,dc=something,dc=com
Password: ********
Am I missing something here?

This error message actually indicates that PRTG could connect to the LDAP server, but the "bind" failed, using the provided credentials. Please re-check that the values provided for Distinguished Name and Password are accepted on your LDAP server's side.
