Sure... When you do group mapping, map them to groups that don't have the domain admins in them. I have a separate OU=Groups that has "Splunk Users, Splunk Admins, Splunk Power Users" as group names, and specific users…

I want to give LDAP access to my splunk servcie but I don't want the LDAP users to have admin capabilitys in Splunk. Can I keep the domain admins out of Splunk if I have LDAP authentication???

Search returns weird #'s
Ok, here's the deal. Still working on the AS/400 Splunk issue. I am currently focusing on creating event types and custom searches for particular security events from the AS/400. Based on my understanding of IBM's documentation (leaves much to be desired, btw) the security related events are made up of two sections of an event. The Journal Code and Event Type. The Journal Code for security should always be a T, and the event type will be a two letter code that corresponds to different security events. I've got that down, I think. However, when performing a search for Journal_Code="T", no events are returned (but I have found T events by searching other fields). Here's the odd part. When I do a search for Journal_Code="*" I get the events and it's telling me that there are 48 events with the particular journal code of "T" found by looking at the top 5 events for that field.
I thought this to be a little odd, so I tried to do a search for the number one rated journal code "R" with 27,811 events matching that journal code entry. I was presented with only 109 events matching that journal code. The numbers are way off, or I'm being told that the event is non-existent when I'm seeing it right in front of me. What might be needed to help me figure out this dilemma?
