Try this one: http://wiki.apache.org/httpd/UseLDAPToPasswordProtectAFolderNice suggestion noodl :)
I had a look at the wiki and I've decied to test this without DAV first. Any noodle, yes, I had a file based authentication for the DAV container that was working perfectly. I just changed the auth part to LDAP.
AuthType Basic AuthzLDAPAuthoritative Off AuthBasicProvider ldap AuthName "DOMAIN DAV Upload" AuthLDAPBindDN "cn=Manager,dc=domain,dc=org" AuthLDAPBindPassword "mysecretpassword" AuthLDAPURL ldap://127.0.0.1:389/ou=DAV,dc=global,dc=domain,dc=org?cn?sub?(objectCla ss=person) Require ldap-user U000001 </Limit> </Directory>One thing you can try quickly is below, i.e. add the quotes around the CN you want to require. Require ldap-user "U000001"
I'm going to test that right away.
I don't often restrict based on user accounts, more often based on group membership, allows for extensibility without needing a restart of Apache. If you would rather use groups, here is what I typically use: AuthType Basic AuthName "**AUTH REALM NAME HERE**" AuthBasicProvider ldap AuthzLDAPAuthoritative on AuthLDAPGroupAttributeIsDN off AuthLDAPGroupAttribute memberUid AuthLDAPBindDN cn=ldapusertobindas,dc=example,dc=com AuthLDAPBindPassword bindpassword AuthLDAPURL ldap://localhost/dc=pc-tony,dc=com?uid require ldap-group cn=ldapgroup1,ou=groups,dc=example,dc=com hth
Yeah, I've seen a lot of examples based on group authentication, which I can't use since no user should see the uploaded files of any other user and may not have access to it. Hence the setup http://host.domain.com/U000001 ... /U000002 and so forth. If there is a more elegant way to accomplish this with rewrites or userdir, please let me know ;)
Cheers, Tony
Thanks for the tips, I will rewrite my httpd.conf to auth just the docroot with LDAP. --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
