http://serverfault.com – I presently use "md5" authentication for access from the lan: host all all 192.168.1.0/24 md5 I want to add ldap authentication method, so I added this line before: host all all 192.168.1.0/24 ldap "ldap://192.168.1.2/basedn;uid=;,cn=xx,dc=yy,dc=zz,dc=ca" This work great with ldap accounts, but if I try to login with an account not present on the LDAP server, the login fails (postgresql doesn't try the md5 authentication). There is a way to support more than one authentication method with postgresql? (HowTos)

Stories similar to Multiples authentication methods for Postgresql

I have a TestLink webservice running on a server, and OpenLDAP running on other server. There are no firewall problems between them (I managed to configure Redmine, on the same server as TestLink, to use LDAP authentication).

But whenever I place the configuration for LDAP in TestLink, TestLink stops working.

Configure DB2 LDAP authentication 33 weeks 15 hours ago

I want to configure LDAP auth in DB2. From IBM docs I learned that first I need to configure LDAP authentication in operating system. But in documentation described old way of configuring LDAP for Operating system. RedHat recommends to use only new SSSD tool.

So, I configured it using SSSD (but without SSL, setting FORCELEGACY parameter in authconfig file to YES).

Hi,

Facing errors during GNOME 3 login using LDAP Client authentication in Fedora 17 i386. configured ldap authentication using authconfig-tui. also modified /etc/sysconfig/authconfig FORCELEGACY=yes parameter to disable TLS .

My server has access to a read-only LDAP where information about 99% of user accounts will reside. On my server I want to configure Samba to use LDAP for authentication.

Now and then there will be some extra users that do not have an account on LDAP.

Context : We have a Ubuntu 12.04 with authentication done on a ldap server.

Unfortunately, one (ldap) user belongs to a (ldap) group named "admin".

I know there is the option nss_initgroups_ignoreusers to list the users I don't want to be looked for from the ldap. But couldn't find any equivalent for groups.

How could I specify ldap groups not to be used on this installation?

I am attempting to move data for one of my clients off their old Xraid system and on to a new SAN.

We are looking at using Tivoli Directory Server (LDAP) or Active Directory 2003 for authentication. I wanted to get some feedback from the community. Our goal is to do it the simplest, easiest, and cheapest way that allows for centralized user authentication. We are mainly an AIX environment with some Red Hat and Suze mixed in.

All advice greatly appreciated.

LDAP authentication 31 weeks 1 day ago

Hi, We are trying to use LDAP to authenticate the login from our application. Our application is installed on AIX 6.1 and LDAP server is on active directory windows 2003.

We are getting the below error when we try to login. We have the required lib file in the path it is looking for.

short form: Should I use some well-known uid to authenticate a ldap client, and then other means within that client to validate the user-entered uid and pw?

long form: We have a commercial .net-based web product that is implemented in many customer sites, and currently uses internal user authentication.

I am investigating using LDAP for authentication against a directory.
