[otrs] Syncing Customers with AD through LDAP

7 Apr 2010

      I am trying to get OTRS to pull the customers from our AD through LDAP
but can't seem to get it working. I have dug through old posts and found
various suggestions (such as the #UserSyncLDAPMap section at the bottom
of my config) but none have seemed to work. My current config is:

#----config from C:\ProgramFiles\OTRS\Kernel\config.pm----

#Enable LDAP authentication for Customers / Users

  $Self->{'Customer::AuthModule'} =
'Kernel::System::CustomerAuth::LDAP';

  $Self->{'Customer::AuthModule::LDAP::Host'} = 'DC.Domain.ORG';

  $Self->{'Customer::AuthModule::LDAP::BaseDN'} =
'ou=users,dc=domain,dc=org';

  $Self->{'Customer::AuthModule::LDAP::UID'} = 'sAMAccountName';

#The following is valid but would only be necessary if the

#anonymous user do NOT have permission to read from the LDAP tree

  $Self->{'Customer::AuthModule::LDAP::SearchUserDN'} = 'Otrsuser';

  $Self->{'Customer::AuthModule::LDAP::SearchUserPw'} = 'password';

#CustomerUser

#(customer user database backend and settings)

    $Self->{CustomerUser} = {

      Module => 'Kernel::System::CustomerUser::LDAP',

      Params => {

      Host => 'DC.Domain.ORG',

      BaseDN => 'OU=staff,DC=domain,DC=org',

      SSCOPE => 'sub',

      UserDN =>'domain\Otrsuser',

      UserPw => 'password',

    },

# customer unique id

    CustomerKey => 'sAMAccountName',

    CustomerID => 'mail',

    CustomerUserListFields => ['sAMAccountName', 'cn', 'mail'],

    CustomerUserSearchFields => ['sAMAccountName', 'cn', 'mail'],

    CustomerUserSearchPrefix => '',

    CustomerUserSearchSuffix => '*',

    CustomerUserSearchListLimit => 250,

    CustomerUserPostMasterSearchFields => ['mail'],

    CustomerUserNameFields => ['givenname', 'sn'],

    Map => [

      [ 'UserFirstname', 'Firstname', 'givenname', 1, 1, 'var' ],

      [ 'UserLastname', 'Lastname', 'sn', 1, 1, 'var' ],

      [ 'UserLogin', 'Login', 'sAMAccountName', 1, 1, 'var' ],

      [ 'UserEmail', 'Email', 'mail', 1, 1, 'var' ],

      [ 'UserCustomerID', 'CustomerID', 'mail', 0, 1, 'var' ],

      [ 'UserPhone', 'Phone', 'telephonenumber', 1, 0, 'var' ],

    ],

  };

   # UserSyncLDAPMap

     # (map if agent should create/synced from LDAP to DB after login)

   $Self->{UserSyncLDAPMap} = {

        # DB -> LDAP

         Firstname => 'givenName',

         Lastname => 'sn',

         Email => 'mail',

     };

     # UserSyncLDAPGroups

     # (If "LDAP" was selected for AuthModule, you can specify initial

     # user groups for first login.)

     $Self->{UserSyncLDAPGroups} = [

         'users',

     ];

Thanks for your help,

Ryan
