Hello,

I need to be able to restrict ldap ou's access based on the ldaps://FQDN used to query the ldap server. Let say I have the following in my ldap server: ou=domain ou=raincoatcompany.com ou=umbrellacompany.com

Considering that both ldap.raincoatcompany.com and ldap.umbrellacompany.com are resolving to IP address 10.0.0.10 So, querying the ldap server using ldaps://ldap.raincoatcompany.com/ou=domain should grant access only to the following: ou=domain ou=raincoatcompany.com

Is there any way to accomplish that with OpenLDAP?

Thanks,

Not possible. slapd only sees the IP address of the incoming connection, it has no way to know what DNS name was used to resolve to that address.

Can't SNI support be added?

Perhaps. It depends on which version of TLS library is being used.

A quick addition: SNI was defined to solve a problem not encountered with LDAP (name virtual hosting on a unique IP address). It also requires the client to be cooperative and announce the desired hostname in an extension (Server Name Indication) during TLS negotiation. Not supporting it in an LDAP context is not bad, or a lack of anything.

My opinion would be that the OP redefines his need.

Is it possible to allow access to a specific dn only by a specific client IP address? ie: access to dn.exact="ou=domain,ou=raincoatcompany.com" by clientIP=200.200.0.117 read

Yes. See "peername" <who> clause in slapd.access(5).

See the man page slapd.access(5), especially

peername[.<peernamestyle>]=<peername>.

More ideas for access control here (not for IP-based authentication though):
