AD auth

Can someone point me to an example of how to auth maia against AD with the LDAP settings in config.php?

 

TIA

Reno,

 

Do you have Microsoft Exchange? If you do then you can also use imap auth (just enable the imap service on your exchange server). We are using maia in this exact configuration and it works flawless. I don’t have any experience using ldap for auth with ad.

 

Good luck,

We are using that exact setup for exchange. Here you go:

 

$auth_ldap_server = "<yourdc>.<yourdomain>:3268";

(I use global catalog because I use the root for the BaseDN and LDAP Referrals&#8230;if all your users are in a certain location and not scattered throughout AD you can use the regular ldap port)

 

$auth_ldap_password = "<password>;”;

The password for the account your going to use to bind to AD.

 

$auth_ldap_query = "(sAMAccountName=%%USER%%)";

I use samaccountname because I don’t want users to have to type the full email addresses to login. You can modify the ldap query to use the email instead or you can even make it so it will accept both just the user and the full email.

 

$auth_ldap_bind_dn = "<bindusername><yourADDomain>&quot;;

IE. If the user its going to use is named “maia”, and your active directory domain is ads.harvard.edu, then your bind username is maiaads.harvard.edu">maiaads.harvard.edu.

 

$auth_ldap_base_dn = “<;the base DN you want to search>”;

 

$auth_ldap_attribute = "mail";

 

$auth_ldap_version = 2;

 

$auth_ldap_opt_referrals = 0;

 

Hope this helps.

Take care,

Tom.
