What is the correct format for SECURITY_PRINCIPAL in LDAP authentication using "com.sun.jndi.ldap.LdapCtxFactory"

Question

env.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, "com.sun.jndi.ldap.LdapCtxFactory");
env.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "ldap://xxx.xxx.xxx.xx:xxx");
env.put(Context.SECURITY_AUTHENTICATION, "simple");
env.put(Context.SECURITY_PRINCIPAL, "CN=username");
env.put(Context.SECURITY_CREDENTIALS, pwd);
env.put(Context.REFERRAL,"follow"); 

I need to search only the "CN" in the particular domain. Tried with above way and many formats, but end up with the error "LDAP error code 49 AcceptSecurityContext error data 52e v2580". Please, someone help me with this.

Not sure what we are missing in your presentation of your issue.

The LDAP error code 49 AcceptSecurityContext error data 52e Returns when username is valid but password/credential is invalid.

We have several examples for JNDI Against Microsoft Active Directory .
