Hello,
I have installed the LDAP Tool Box version of OpenLDAP on Centos8 for the purpose of a proxy to AD. My proxy needs to "translate" from our old AD domain to our new AD domain (I hate company name changes!).
We have some software that access our old domain with certain credentials, does searches for groups and users then binds as the appropriate user to authenticate the user.
From this legacy system I need to be able to: 1. Bind to the proxy with credentials I can't change. These look like user "special-user@old.com". (Not a typical DN, looks more like a user principal). 2. Search a particular subtree for users and bind as that user to authenticate. 3. Search another subtree for groups and use an ad-style membership check to determine who is a user, who is an admin, etc. I need to be able to authenticate for the searching using the above special user, but the proxy operation should use a different set of credentials when searching the backend. I also need to translate subtrees and possibly individual DNs.
This is my (sanitized) slapd.conf: ------------------------------------------------- include /usr/local/openldap/etc/openldap/schema/core.schema include /usr/local/openldap/etc/openldap/schema/cosine.schema include /usr/local/openldap/etc/openldap/schema/inetorgperson.schema include /usr/local/openldap/etc/openldap/schema/misc.schema include /usr/local/openldap/etc/openldap/schema/nis.schema

Once the frontend rebinds with the user's credentials, that needs to pass through.
Can anyone help me have a "split personality" when it comes to authentication?
