[otrs] Adding a second agent auth

5 Mar 2008

      I'm in the process of creating an OTRS test environment and attempting
to configure LDAP agent authentication. After a bit of reading I managed
to get things working. When I tried to log back into OTRS as the
root@localhost user though I realized I that I was no longer using the
local DB and couldn't get admin access. I tried to add a second agent
authentication method following the docs and previous posts but haven't
found much information on configuring the DB method. Here is my current
config:

    $Self->{'AuthModule'} = 'Kernel::System::Auth::LDAP';
    $Self->{'AuthModule::LDAP::Host'} = 'maddc01.acme.com';
    $Self->{'AuthModule::LDAP::BaseDN'} = 'DC=acme,DC=com';
    $Self->{'AuthModule::LDAP::UID'} = 'sAMAccountName';

    $Self->{'AuthModule::LDAP::GroupDN'} = 'CN=Enterprise Desktop
Technician,OU=Security Groups,OU=USA,DC=acme,DC=com';
    $Self->{'AuthModule::LDAP::AccessAttr'} = 'member';
    $Self->{'AuthModule::LDAP::UserAttr'} = 'DN';

    $Self->{'AuthModule::LDAP::SearchUserDN'} = 'CN=Lambert\,
Derek,OU=Users,OU=USA,DC=acme,DC=com';
    $Self->{'AuthModule::LDAP::SearchUserPw'} = 'password';

    $Self->{'AuthModule::LDAP::AlwaysFilter'} =
'(objectCategory=person)';

    $Self->{'AuthModule::LDAP::Params'} = {
        port => 389,
        timeout => 120,
        async => 0,
        version => 3,
    };

    $Self->{'AuthModule::LDAP::Die'} = 1;

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

    $Self->{UserSyncLDAPGroups} = [
        'users',
    ];

    $Self->{DatabaseUserTable} = 'system_user';
    $Self->{DatabaseUserTableUserID} = 'id';
    $Self->{DatabaseUserTableUserPW} = 'pw';
    $Self->{DatabaseUserTableUser} = 'login';

    $Self->{'AuthModule2'} = 'Kernel::System::Auth::DB';

 When I try and login as root@localhost I get the following errors in
otrs.log:

[Wed Mar  5 14:11:19 2008][Error][Kernel::System::Auth::DB::Auth][90]
Table 'otrs.user' doesn't exist, SQL: 'SELECT pw, id  FROM  user  WHERE
valid_id IN ( 1 )  AND  login = 'root@localhost''
[Wed Mar  5 14:11:19 2008][Notice][Kernel::System::Auth::DB::Auth] User:
root@localhost doesn't exist or is invalid!!! (REMOTE_ADDR: 127.0.0.1)

I can see the problem is it's looking for the table 'user', not
'system_user' - but how do I change this?

I tried changing LDAP to the second method but the Sync Map doesn't work
and I get the 'Panic! No UserData for user' error.

This is probably a simple question but my perl is a bit rusty and I
can't quite remember all the ->, =>, =, etc. and where to use which one.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!
