Hi John,

This worked for Windows 2000. It also worked for Windows  2003 if
the search base was not the root of the domain.

I found that if you authenticate against a Global  Catalogue, it
works for both.

Setting "AuthAuthoritative Off" should allow other modules  to
authenticate users if ldap fails. I haven't tried this  yet.

I've modified this to match my own AD configuration, but I'm still not
having any luck :-(

My apache install includes the ldap_module.so and auth_ldap_module.so files
- should these work OK by themselves, or do I need to install further
OpenLDAP libraries?  Running ldd on these files doesn't indicate any
special requirements.

Subject: RE: [hobbit] securing  access

There was a post a few  days back with an LDAP configuration.  I was
able to change a few things  around a get that to work with our MS
Active Directory to validate  usernames/passwords for access on a RH
EL 3.0 box.


Here is the config for  my Apache server.  It effectively let’s
anyone access from the internal  10.x.x.x network and then requires
a valid username/password for anyone  accessing via the Web.


<Directory  "/var/www/html">
     AllowOverride None
     Order Deny,Allow
     AuthType Basic
     AuthName "<Something to display in dialog>"
     AuthzLDAPEngine on
     AuthzLDAPServer <IP Address of LDAP  Server>:389
     AuthzLDAPUserKey sAMAccountName
     AuthzLDAPBindDN <valid LDAP Username for binding to  server>
     AuthzLDAPBindPassword <LDAP password for username  above>
     AuthzLDAPUserBase dc=<something>,dc=<something .com, .local,
.net  etc…>
     AuthzLDAPUserScope subtree
     Deny  from all
     Satisfy any
     Require valid-user
     Allow from 10.

</Directory>


Standard disclaimer  would be that I am no Apache expert and this
took me FOREVER to get working  right, but it seems to be okay now.

Does anyone know how to lock the  whole hobbit page down? I have a
friend that would like to be able to get to  the page from anywhere
but wants something like htaccess. Before  I  started mucking around
with apache to try to get this working I  thought I would see if
anyone has done  this.


Thanks,

Dave
