LDAP configuration
We have created an ldap test user called john with password 123456.
Packages for use:
| role | debian packages |
|---|---|
| server | slapd, ldap-utils |
| client | nscd, libnss-ldap |
LDAP server is installed on the manage node. We use dc=cluster,dc=local as the domain name. The password of admin is set to abc. The content of add_content.ldif
is in this repository, to be used like this:
ldapadd -x -D cn=admin,dc=cluster,dc=local -W -f add_content.ldif
When you install libnss-ldap for client, the configuration will pop out automatrically, fill in ldap server address: ldap://10.8.15.136; Then modify /etc/nsswitch.conf to add ldap authentication.
passwd: files systemd ldap
group: files systemd ldap
Afterwards, run sudo pam-auth-update to add the functionality to auto create the home directory for LDAP users.
