Server :: Apache Authentication: Allow LDAP Group OR User Named Guest But Not All LDAP Users?
May 25, 2011I am using RackMonkey to map out my lab. Unfortunately, due to RM limitations, every user who accesses the site has write access UNLESS they are logged in as a user named "guest". I currently have Apache allowing only the users (sysadmins) in an LDAP group access to RM, but I would like to allow read-only access for other users as well.I found mod_authn_anon, but I am having trouble combining the two authentication methods. I am using Apache 2.2.18 (compiled myself) on SLES 11.1.
This is the common part:
Code:
AuthType Basic
AuthBasicProvider ldap anon
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
This part by itself works for the LDAP authentication:
Code:
AuthName "System Admins"
AuthLDAPURL "ldaps://example.com/ou=ldap,o=example.com?mail" SSL
Require ldap-group cn=SysAdmins,ou=memberlist,ou=groups,o=example.com
This part works by itself for guest access:
Code:
Anonymous guest
Anonymous_VerifyEmail Off
Anonymous_MustGiveEmail Off
Anonymous_LogEmail on
Require valid-user
But if I have both of the previous blocks enabled at once, then guest access does not work. If I throw in a "Satisfy any", then I am not prompted for a username at all. How can I allow access to this LDAP group and to a user named "guest", but not allow all valid LDAP users to log in?
Server :: Virtual LDAP Server And Virtual Mediawiki Host - Can't Login With Users From LDAP
Jun 5, 2011In the past I found some great help on this forum, so here goes. Bare with me because it's a long story. I'll try to be as complete as possible. I've installed and configured OpenLdap on a virtual machine with ip 192.168.39.134. I've added 2 users via LAM. In the ou WikiUsers and the domain is wiki.local.
I've then created another host with ip 192.168.39.133 with mediawiki installed on it. Then I added the extension LDAPAuthenthication. In the LdapAuthentication file I added this code (only the last paragraph is mine, I added the others to show it's location in the script):
Quote:
$path = array( $IP, "$IP/includes", "$IP/languages" );
set_include_path( implode( PATH_SEPARATOR, $path ) . PATH_SEPARATOR . get_include_path() );
[code]...
I know I'm close because I can't register any new users or accounts on the mediawiki site. Although I could before I added the LDAP service. This is indeed all just to test and get to know how LDAP works. That's why it's all virtual in VMWare. I did not really configure anything on the LDAP, i just installed it and chose a domain (wiki.local).

View 4 Replies View RelatedServer :: Merging Local And LDAP Users?
Oct 5, 2010"Merging" may not be quite the right word but that is the desired end result.
Scenario: many Solaris 10 servers, each with various local users. We want to set up LDAP for all for all of them. LDAP server is set up, procedure for getting other servers to use it for user authentication is documented and tested. The question is how to handle users that are in LDAP who also exist as a local user on a given machine.
It appears that the usernames on both sides follow a convention and therefore match but obviously the userids will not match. Local user joe has userid 1234, LDAP user joe has userid 56789.
The way I see it we'll have to:
1. move local user joe's home directory to the path that LDAP user joe will want
2. change local user joe's userid to that of LDAP user joe
3. change joe's files' owner to his new userid
4. remove local user joe
5. finally configure LDAP
Is this a rational procedure? Is there a more effective method? I'm not looking forward to this as there are many servers and each of them have a different set of local users, each with different userids which will have to be handled manually and individually therefore not even scriptable much.
CentOS 5 Server :: How To Add Users To LDAP Directory

View 2 Replies View RelatedServer :: Adding LDAP People Entries That Are Not Users
Jan 22, 2010I currently have an LDAP database on my Suse 10.2 server for managing authentication and controlling emails for my Cyrus email server. I use this setup to provide email functionality to my web and email hosting clients, as well as DNS functionality, and it uses the default LDAP database that was setup when OpenLDAP was initially configured. Email support is working wonderfully, I might add. I also tested and verified the use of an email lookup directory in two different email clients (Outlook and Evolution) so that I can tell one of my clients how to lookup the email address of users who are setup in the LDAP server, and it works beautifully.
However, I'd also like to be able to allow my clients to build a shared contact database that can also be used in their email clients so that they can share them among all of their users. Ideally, I would need to be able to allow each client to have their own database of shared contacts, and I assume this would be done by creating a new LDAP database for each client company (i.e. group of users) that can contain the list of shared contacts for any of that client's users. When they configure their email client directory settings, they would enter the base path to their database in order to retrieve their shared contact database entries.
In my web searches, I've found plenty of CRM solutions on the web that claim to provide this type of functionality, but I believe that OpenLDAP contains everything I need to make this work without adding another layer of software to the server solution. (I subscribe to the "Keep it Simple, Stupid!" approach whenever possible.) Essentially, I need to have People entries in a client's LDAP database that are NOT email users on the system. The fields in the standard people schema are all the fields they would need - as long as I can figure out how best to add these non-user entries in the LDAP database. Are there any potential difficulties in creating additional LDAP databases expressly for this purpose?
Are there any tricks to adding contact entries into a client's LDAP database without them also being current email users on the server, so that those entries can be retrieved through an Email Client directory lookup? I will also want to provide an easy method for my client users to add new entries to their LDAP contact database, most likely through a web interface for them that could then issue LDAP commands on the server based on the input fields for the new contact. (I don't believe this is possible from within the email client itself.) Is there any reason this could not be done with the proper configuration? What should I be aware of as I setup this contact management web interface? Is there a better way for non-technical client users to manage this list of shared contacts?

General :: Openssh + PAM + LDAP Fails Only With LDAP Users?
Mar 31, 2010I've compiled openssh-5.4p1 on RHEL 4.8 with Openssl 0.9.8m + pam It works perfect without pam (pam-0.77-66), both with password and public key auth. Whith pam enabled and LDAP (openldap-2.4.21, from scratch) something strange happens: system users: I can do ssh with both password and public key LDAP users: public key works for remote users, still I cannot do ssh with just password. I'm trying a custom PAM configuration, because the default one (even with authconfig + LDAP ) blocks ssh even with system users.
My pam SSHD configuration is:
#%PAM-1.0
auth required pam_env.so
auth sufficient pam_unix.so likeauth nullok
auth sufficient pam_ldap.so use_first_pass
[code]....
My LDAP users are ok: i can do "su - " remote LDAP (so that nss_ldap is OK), also getent passwd and getent group is ok.
Networking :: Assign Access Privileges To Users In LDAP Server ?
Jan 6, 2010In researching current ldap issue (not being able to do anything but log in) it seems that there are no concepts of privileges, roles, etc. that could be assigned to a user in LDAP.
I've only seen fields that deal with name, organization, etc., not with application-specific access control.
I have to assign certain access privileges to users authenticated via LDAP server based on the privilege level mentoned in the LDAP server. How to attain this.

Server :: LDAP Does Not Work - Long Time To Log On
Jan 19, 2011LDAP Server => CentOS 5.5 Configured according to this link [url]
LDAP Client => Fedora 14 Configured according to this link [url]
Now after I reboot the Fedora14 during startup, it takes very very long time to start up the mdmonitor service.
After that when I log on using a local account in the Fedora14 machine, it takes painfully long time to log on. And it does not identify the domain user.
I can able to log on to the ldap server through ssh from the Fedora machine.
I issued the command 'getent passwd' which does not fetch the domain users either. I am completely lost now.
Security :: Kerberos And LDAP - Users Will Be Able To Login In To A Server On The Edge Of The LAN And Establish A SSH Connection
Feb 19, 2010I am trying to deploy Kerberos and LDAP so users will be able to login in to a server on the edge of the LAN, and afterwards be able to establish a SSH connection to all the computers in that LAN without the need to type any passwords, and without the need for me to manage SSH keys [beside the SSH keys on the login server] and local user accounts.
1. When i create the users in OpenLDAP i use a template that i created by reading documentation from the Internet. In the template one piece of information that is neede is the UID. Is there any clever way the keep track of the numbers so i do not assign the same UID to two users, besides using a pen and paper?
2. For the users to be able to establish SSH connections between the computers, the host is going to be added to the keytab like this: ktadd host/client.example.com Is is possible to replace client with something genric so i do not need to mange these keytab files between the hosts?
3. Users will be logging on the the server on the edge of LAN by using SSH keys. How can i configure the setup so the users will recieve a ticket automatically when the logon without executing kinit and without entering a password, just by having a valid SSH key?
4. krb5kdc is running on all the network interfaces in the server i want it to only run on eth1, how can this be done?
Software :: Import Windows Users / Passwords Into Openldap Server - Ldap Migrate Migration?
Nov 18, 2009I am looking for ideas for getting windows users into an ldap server. I am currently running a Linux server for my department and need to create an LDAP server which mirrors the username/password information for all of us as they are stored in the windows server here. I have the openldap server up and running on Ubuntu 8.04 and it works great; I now need to find some way to import user info into this from windows. I've seen discussions of using ldifde.exe to export the AD users into an ldif file. Is this the simplest way to go about it?
Our Linux server is currently providing us with much needed services using apache, and apache is authenticating using LDAP to our windows server (Using our windows username / password is required functionality). This windows server has some problem which causes it to delay for inordinate amounts of time between authentication requests and responses. The situation is such that this problem will not be addressed by IT staff. However, I have control over the Linux server so I am looking to just mirror the windows server on an LDAP server of my own. I could get away with updating the passwords in the Linux server.

Server :: NPT Time Sync - Disable DST Switching?
May 2, 2011I live in Egypt and we used to have Daylight Saving Time in this time of the year. But due to some political conditions, this decision was revoked and we are not using DST this year. The problem is that my Redhat 5.6 machines, configured to the timezone Africa/Cairo has already set the DST (UTC+3). The current time in Egypt is UTC+2. Of course I can manually set the time but the servers are set to sync automatically with an NTP time server so that time gets synced automatically whenever I try to change it. I want a way or another to disable DST switching.

May 31, 2010we have a weird problem with our opensuse 11.2 server installation.
We want to set up a LDAP Server using the Yast-LDAP Server configuriation tool.
This indeed already worked weeks ago until....this week.
Maybe some updates??!
I do not know what happend exactly. The server just does not want to start again and throws following error:
Starting ldap-serverstartproc: exit status of parent of /usr/lib/openldap/slapd: 1 failed
This happend after a little check of the configuration, but without a change, with Yast. Google delivered only "reinstall your box"-answers.
So.. i did that. And now the "mystical" part: The SAME ERROR occurs with a fresh vanilla system with a brand new and simple configuration (certificats, database, pw...the first Yast config dialog...). I did not change the way i set it up.
I remember, when i did this the first time with 11.2 on that machine, when no problems occured...everything was running out of the box (except the "use commen server certificate" option...).
