Hi Everyone,
Like many organizations, we have two authentication systems
here. I am trying to figure out a way of synchronizing LDAP passwords with AD
passwords; or proxying the requests to AD. Management wants to keep LDAP
intact, while enjoying the flexibility of single password.
I have unsuccessfully tried to use proxy functionally of
LDAP to get user information from AD. First of all, AD needs a user name and
password to retrieve information. Is there a way of specifying
username/password? Even the following ldapsearch FAILS on openldap server, but the
same query works fine for AD server.
ldapsearch -LLL -x -h localhost -b
'cn=users,dc=internal,dc=phg,dc=com,dc=au' -D
"ldapauth@internal.phg.com.au" -W –x
ldapsearch -LLL -x -h localhost -b
'dc=internal,dc=phg,dc=com,dc=au' -D "CN=Ldap
Authentication,OU=Linux,OU=InformationTechnology,OU=Portland
House,OU=Sites,DC=internal,DC=phg,DC=com,DC=au" -W –x
Here is the relevant sladp.conf snippet.
database ldap
suffix
"cn=users,dc=internal,dc=phg,dc=com,dc=au"
subordinate
rebind-as-user
uri
"ldap://192.168.100.100/"

Any help is appreciated. Thank you very much.
Cheers
