Re: [otrs] LDAP tls authentication Fun

Another question about the group sync. What is the AccessAttr and what are the possible parameters? $Self->{'AuthSyncModule::LDAP::AccessAttr'} = 'memberUid'; Is the parameter for this setting an ldap attribute? Rory Support my 365 Challenge in aid of the Irish Cancer Society www.365challenge.ie 2009/8/7 Rory :

Nuts, hit send too early.

So I've added the following to the config;

  # Sync LDAP group to role in OTRS   # AuthSyncModule::LDAP::UserSyncRolesDefinition   $Self->{'AuthSyncModule::LDAP::UserSyncRolesDefinition'} = {

      # ldap group       'CN=IT,OU=Groups,OU=IT,OU=Departments' => {               # otrs role               'r_IT' => 1,       },

  };

I prefix  all my roles in otrs with r_ to try to keep things clear (group with g_ too) Does the ldap group use the baseDN specified in the Agent LDAP Auth config

Do I need to use the attributes specified for  group syncs when syncing roles?

i.e.    # Attributes needed for group syncs    # (attribute name for group value key) #    $Self->{'AuthSyncModule::LDAP::AccessAttr'} = 'memberUid';    # (attribute for type of group content UID/DN for full ldap name) #    $Self->{'AuthSyncModule::LDAP::UserAttr'} = 'UID'; #    $Self->{'AuthSyncModule::LDAP::UserAttr'} = 'DN';

Hi Michiel,

Thanks for the info. I'm trying to use the SyncRolesDefinition and I've added the following to the config;

   # Sync LDAP group to role in OTRS    # AuthSyncModule::LDAP::UserSyncRolesDefinition    $Self->{'AuthSyncModule::LDAP::UserSyncRolesDefinition'} = {

       # ldap group        'CN=IT,OU=Groups,OU=IT,OU=Departments' => {                # otrs role                'r_IT' => 1,        },

   };

I prefix  all my roles in otrs with r_ to try to keep things clear (group with g_ too)

Hi Rory and Mauricio,

Let me first state that if you have configured the AuthSyncModule the OTRS will sync agent data every time a user logs in to OTRS. If you'd change the user properties in active directory; they would be updated in OTRS as soon as the agent logs in. And of course, if the account is disabled in the AD, the user will not be able to log in to OTRS.

the UserSyncInitialGroups can be used to define a standard group for every user from a certain source. For instance, you could define it so that every LDAP user is automatically put in the groups Users and FAQ.

If you would like to manage your OTRS groups from your LDAP source, that is also possible. Please look into the Defaults.pm file, under UserSyncGroupsDefinition: modify, unquote and put into your Custom.pm

Regards,

Michiel

       I have no problems if otrs cannot edit ldap. What I would like is to be able to define which group someone belongs to in ldap and then otrs will see the groups memberships and then grant the said user rights according to the memberships.

I'm kinda guessing here but you may be able to find more with a quick google; I think the following piece of config will add any user, who logs in for the first time, to the specified group in OTRS

   # AuthSyncModule::LDAP::UserSyncInitialGroups    # (sync following group with rw permission after initial create of first agent    # login)    $Self->{'AuthSyncModule::LDAP::UserSyncInitialGroups'} = [        'users',    ];

But that could be syncing groups from ldap to the DB. I know I've seen more about this in the docs or on this list but I havn't found it yet.

...

       Well, what I have found so far (I might be wrong) is that the user has to be in the local db; the password can be kept in ldap but you have to create an user in otrs. What I did was after setting ldap up, I tried to login as one of the users from the ldap group (cn=users) I gave otrs as the GroupDN. It cheerfully ignored that user. THen I created an user with the same username inside otrs but did not give a password. I was able to login as the said user.

That's fits with how I understand this to work. If you don't have the sync config added it doesn't know to pull the user from ldap so it can't find them in the DB and fails. Once you create them in the DB you're golden. The sync has the benefit that you can pull across some extra info into the DB e.g.;

   $Self->{'AuthSyncModule::LDAP::UserSyncMap'} = {        # DB -> LDAP        UserFirstname => 'givenName',        UserLastname  => 'sn',        UserEmail     => 'mail',    };

I wonder if that can be used to pull across the group info too?

...

My ideas on this are all open to questioning tho as I don't know this for fact.

       Do you think I do? =) I am still figuring this program out.

I was kinda hoping somebody was gonna come along and tell that I was right :)
