SLAPO-REMOTEAUTH(5) File Formats Manual SLAPO-REMOTEAUTH(5)
slapo-remoteauth - Delegate authentication requests to remote
directories, e.g. Active Directory
ETCDIR/slapd.conf
The remoteauth overlay to slapd(8) provides passthrough
authentication to remote directory servers, e.g. Active
Directory, for LDAP simple bind operations. The local LDAP entry
referenced in the bind operation is mapped to its counterpart in
the remote directory. An LDAP bind operation is performed against
the remote directory and results are returned based on those of
the remote operation.
A slapd server configured with the remoteauth overlay handles an
authentication request based on the presence of userPassword in
the local entry. If the userPassword is present, authentication
is performed locally, otherwise the remoteauth overlay performs
the authentication request to the configured remote directory
server.
The following options can be applied to the remoteauth overlay
within the slapd.conf file. All options should follow the overlay
remoteauth directive.
overlay remoteauth
This directive adds the remoteauth overlay to the current
database, see slapd.conf(5) for details.
remoteauth_dn_attribute <dnattr>
Attribute in the local entry that is used to store the
bind DN to a remote directory server.
remoteauth_mapping <domain> <hostname|LDAP
URI|file:///path/to/list_of_hostnames>
For a non-Windows deployment, a domain can be considered
as a collection of one or more hosts to which slapd server
authentcates against on behalf of authenticating users.
For a given domain name, the mapping specifies the target
server(s), e.g., Active Directory domain controller(s), to
connect to via LDAP. The second argument can be given
either as a hostname, an LDAP URI, or a file containing a
list of hostnames/URIs, one per line. The hostnames are
tried in sequence until the connection succeeds.
This option can be provided more than once to provide
mapping information for different domains. For example:
remoteauth_mapping americas file:///path/to/americas.domain.hosts
remoteauth_mapping asiapacific file:///path/to/asiapacific.domain.hosts
remoteauth_mapping emea emeadc1.emea.example.com
remoteauth_domain_attribute <attr>
Attribute in the local entry that specifies the domain
name, any text after "\" or ":" is ignored.
remoteauth_default_domain <default domain>
Default domain.
remoteauth_default_realm <server>
Fallback server to connect to for domains not specified in
remoteauth_mapping.
remoteauth_retry_count <num>
Number of connection retries attempted. Default is 3.
remoteauth_store <on|off>
Whether to store the password in the local entry on
successful bind. Default is off.
remoteauth_tls [starttls=yes] [tls_cert=<file>] [tls_key=<file>]
[tls_cacert=<file>] [tls_cacertdir=<path>]
[tls_reqcert=never|allow|try|demand]
[tls_reqsan=never|allow|try|demand]
[tls_cipher_suite=<ciphers>] [tls_ecname=<names>]
[tls_crlcheck=none|peer|all]
Remoteauth specific TLS configuration, see slapd.conf(5)
for more details on each of the parameters and defaults.
remoteauth_tls_peerkey_hash <hostname> <hashname>:<base64 of
public key hash>
Mapping between remote server hostnames and their public
key hashes. Only one mapping per hostname is supported and
if any pins are specified, all hosts need to be pinned. If
set, pinning is in effect regardless of whether or not
certificate name validation is enabled by tls_reqcert.
A typical example configuration of remoteauth overlay for AD is
shown below (as a slapd.conf(5) snippet):
database <database>
#...
overlay remoteauth
remoteauth_dn_attribute seeAlso
remoteauth_domain_attribute associatedDomain
remoteauth_default_realm americas.example.com
remoteauth_mapping americas file:///home/ldap/etc/remoteauth.americas
remoteauth_mapping emea emeadc1.emea.example.com
remoteauth_tls starttls=yes tls_reqcert=demand tls_cacert=/home/ldap/etc/example-ca.pem
remoteauth_tls_peerkey_hash ldap.americas.tld sha256:Bxv3MkLoDm6gt/iDfeGNdNNqa5TTpPDdIwvZM/cIgeo=
Where seeAlso contains the AD bind DN for the user,
associatedDomain contains the Windows Domain Id in the form of
<NT-domain-name>:<NT-username> in which anything following,
including ":", is ignored.
slapd.conf(5), slapd(8).
