The configuration can now contain a directive like this require valid_user cn=$remote_user,dc=example,dc=com which will result in the bind as the respective user to be the only command sent to the server, skipping the search request.
LDAP Authentication module for nginx
LDAP module for nginx which supports authentication against multiple LDAP servers.
#Warning This module blocks whole nginx worker while communicating with ldap servers, so it can easily make "bad apache" out of your awesome nginx. But is might be useful if you don't have apache in your stack and don't want to add it, but need ldap auth on separate host (say backoffice or admin panel).
So use carefully and consider the drawbacks.
How to install
FreeBSD
cd /usr/ports/www/nginx && make config install clean
Check HTTP_AUTH_LDAP options
[*] HTTP_AUTH_LDAP 3rd party http_auth_ldap module
Linux
cd ~ && git clone https://github.com/kvspb/nginx-auth-ldap.git
in nginx source folder
./configure --add-module=path_to_http_auth_ldap_module
make install
Example configuration
Define list of your LDAP servers with required user/group requirements:
ldap_server test1 {
url ldap://192.168.0.1:3268/DC=test,DC=local?sAMAccountName?sub?(objectClass=person);
binddn "TEST\\LDAPUSER";
binddn_passwd LDAPPASSWORD;
group_attribute uniquemember;
group_attribute_is_dn on;
require user_valid;
}
ldap_server test2 {
url ldap://192.168.0.2:3268/DC=test,DC=local?sAMAccountName?sub?(objectClass=person);
binddn "TEST\\LDAPUSER";
binddn_passwd LDAPPASSWORD;
group_attribute uniquemember;
group_attribute_is_dn on;
require user_valid;
}
And add required servers in correct order into your location/server directive:
server {
listen 8000;
server_name localhost;
auth_ldap "Forbidden";
auth_ldap_servers test1;
auth_ldap_servers test2;
location / {
root html;
index index.html index.htm;
}
}
