Hi Chavez, This is the authz-regexp string I have used in slapd.conf:
authz-regexp uid=([^,]*),cn=synovel.com,cn=gssapi,cn=auth uid=$1,ou=People,dc=synovel,dc=com
This works if the SASL auth mechanism is gssapi. I have also hard-coded the SASL Realm with the below config option:
sasl-realm SYNOVEL.COM
If it uses the default realm (i.e. sasl-realm option is missing) then the string would probably be:
authz-regexp uid=([^,]*),cn=gssapi,cn=auth uid=$1,ou=People,dc=synovel,dc=com
Hope this is of some assistance. For furthur information, kindly read http://www.openldap.org/doc/admin24/sasl.html#Mapping%20Authentication%20Ide... .
Regards, Rahul.

Hello all, My plan is to use Kerberos and LDAP as a replacement for NIS. My issue is that I need my kerberos credentials to map to a user in LDAP so I can avoid permission issues when logging in with kerberos creds. All the perms are based on the UNIX/LDAP users and groups. Thing is the user id's are different between kerberos and LDAP. The kerberos names consist of firstname_lastname@REALM. The ldap entries are in the format of standard Unix user names or first letter of first name and up to 7 characters of the last name (jmontana). I migrated the LDAP entries from my existing NIS maps. Now I understand that I can use SASL and authz-regexp in slapd.conf to map these id's. Please correct me if I am wrong.
I added all the corresponding "krbName: first_last@REALM" to the users when I added them to the LDAP directory. For example for user Joe Montana..His ldap dn is "dn: uid=jmontana,ou=People,dc=test,dc=example,dc=com" His uid is "uid: jmontana And his Krb name is ""krbName: joe_montana@TEST.EXAMPLE.COM"
I think all the data is there to get a mapping I just am unsure of the auth-regexp strings I need to add to the slapd.conf file. Does anyone out there have any experience with this and better yet provide the string or example of what strings I can use? I have searched the net on how to authenticate with kerberos and effictively login with a local id but have been unsuccessful in my search. Appreciate any help.
Thank You James
