Are you sure the DTML method is finding the correct obect to call "findUsers" on?

ya, am sure n confirmed tht the object i mean LDAP directory server is found and shows up in the acl_users folder. it does not show any message "not connected" which is the case when it can find the object.

You don't understand what I am talking about. When you cann findUsers, have you confirmed that the object you call it on is the user folder? The exception says there is no findUsers method on the object, so it is probably not using the right object.

Pls let me know how to configure the application so that the basic authentication pop-up dialog comes up when we access the URL(this happens in our old installation).

You don't get what people try to tell you: This is not an authentication problem. The problem is with the exception that clains there is no findUsers method. This exception happens before authentication kicks in. jens -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (Darwin) iD8DBQFFBSYFRAx5nvEhZLIRAq3xAJ446mvb9hsapSzg2HWxhufqq3JyQACgukpw B8uL9z8xKexlUmnFjf7Fkso= =SRCs -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
