Apache and LDAP

This is how to get users authenticated against LDAP on AD. We're using:

  • Apache 2.2.16
  • Debian 6
  • AD on Server2012

First step is to create a user called apache-ldap, the user does not need to have any special permissions, it's just to read from LDAP.

  • Install the user tools:
apt-get install ldap-utils
  • Enable autnz on apache (Already installed with 2.2)
a2dismod authnz_ldap
a2enmod authnz_ldap


  • Set some defaults in /etc/ldap/ldap.conf
BASE    dc=hitchhiker,dc=com
REFERRALS off
  • Switch on debugging log in apache.conf
LogLevel debug

Query LDAP

  • Basic Query
ldapsearch -LLL  -H ldap://hh-intpdc.hitchhiker.com -x  -D 'apache-ldap' -w 'xxxxx'
  • Full query with no size limits, usefull to pipe the entire catalog to file
ldapsearch -LLL  -E pr=1000/noprompt -x -H ldap://hh-intpdc.hitchhiker.com -x  -D 'apache-ldap' -w '******'
  • Sample query to show all users, NOTE THAT AD does not know the OU=Users so we have to use the common name CN=Users
ldapsearch -D "apache-ldap" -w xxxxxxxx -H ldap://hh-intpdc.hitchhiker.com -b "CN=Users,DC=hitchhiker,DC=com"
  • Sample query to show all user group called Male
ldapsearch -D "apache-ldap" -w xxxxx -H ldap://hh-intpdc.hitchhiker.com -b "CN=Male,CN=Users,DC=hitchhiker,DC=com" objectclass=*

HTACCESS

  • sample of .htaccess
AuthName "Top Secret Area"
AuthType Basic
AuthBasicProvider ldap
AuthzLDAPAuthoritative Off
AuthLDAPURL "ldap://CENTAURI.hitchhiker.com/cn=Users,dc=hitchhiker,dc=com?sAMAccountName?sub?
AuthLDAPBindDN "apache-ldap@hitchhiker.com"
AuthLDAPBindPassword ****
  • Filter criterias, pick one or more
#Filter for one or more usernames
Require ldap-user "Username"

#Filter for existing mobile phone number and the department must be IT
Require ldap-filter &(mobile=*)(department=IT)

#Filter for Exchange attributes
Require ldap-attribute extensionAttribute3=GroupPolicy-ITAdmin

#Assumming a user calles stats within the group bookingstats at OU=IT
Require ldap-group CN=bookingstats,ou=IT,dc=hitchhiker,dc=com

Setup sample of statistics

bookingstats.intern and statistics.hitchhiker.net are different server in different networks, they use both different sql servers (security) but use the same ldap server to authenticate.
The goal of this is having both, STATUSER and External user logging in to both server.

Setup external OU

Create an OU called External. Add a group called statistics and add the external users into this group:

Setup the internal Exchange Attribute

Edit the exchange attribute number 4 and type STATUSER:

Apache config sample for bookingstats.intern

We use the Exchange attributes as main authentication and the external OU External as second authentication. This is named like Apache authentication from multiple domains in AD with mod_authn_alias

Using AD Group within Directory, Location or File

Sample to use the AD Group MYGROUP' within a Files context 


<Files "manage.pl">
 AuthName "Use your winwods accoutn to login"

 AuthType Basic
 AuthLDAPGroupAttribute member
 AuthLDAPGroupAttributeIsDN On
 AuthLDAPURL "ldap://hh-intpdc.hitchhiker.com/cn=Users,dc=hitchhiker,dc=com?sAMAccountName?sub?(objectClass=*)"
 AuthLDAPBindDN "apache-ldap@hitchhiker.com"
 AuthLDAPBindPassword 0uru4w8v
 Require ldap-group cn=MYGROUP,cn=Users,dc=hitchhiker,dc=com
</Files>

Sample to use the AD Group MYGROUP' within a Directryy context 

<Directory "/usr/local/www/testcode.internxx">
 Options Indexes MultiViews ExecCGI
 DirectoryIndex index.htm
 Order allow,deny
 Allow from all
 AddHandler cgi-script .cgi .pl .htm
 DirectoryIndex index.htm
 AuthName "Use your winwods accoutn to login"
 AuthBasicProvider ldap

 AuthLDAPURL "ldap://hh-intpdc.hitchhiker.com/cn=Users,dc=hitchhiker,dc=com?sAMAccountName?sub?(objectClass=*)"
 AuthLDAPBindDN "apache-ldap@hitchhiker.com"
 AuthLDAPBindPassword 0uru4w8v
 Require ldap-group cn=MYGROUP,cn=Users,dc=hitchhiker,dc=com
</Directory>

Caching

Caching is enabled by default, to see the stats add the following location: 

<Location /server/cache-info>
 SetHandler ldap-status
</Location>

Disable caching in eg apache.conf 

LDAPOpCacheEntries 0
