LDAP server


Installation

Packages

apt-get install slapd ldap-utils

# For SSL - TLS access
apt-get install gnutls-bin

You'll have to choose a LDAP admin password. Choose a strong password!!


Set domain

Edit configuration file: 

vim /etc/ldap/ldap.conf


Uncomment and adjust: 

BASE dc=dev,dc=daxiongmao,dc=eu
URI ldap://dev.daxiongmao.eu


Launch LDAP configuration

Launch configuration: 

dpkg-reconfigure slapd
  • Select NO to the first question = it will create a new database
  • Current LDAP server: "dev.daxiongmao.eu". This must match your (DC=...,DC=....,DC=....)
  • Name of your organization: daxiongmao.eu
  • Root LDAP server: put your root or the same value as before.
  • Put your administrator password - the same as earlier
  • Select HDB (Berkley database)
  • Do NOT remove database on package removal
  • Move old database
  • Do NOT allow LDAP v2


Open firewall

Add the following rules to your firewall 

# LDAP
$IPTABLES -A INPUT -p tcp -m state --state NEW --dport 389 -j ACCEPT # LDAP
$IPTABLES -A INPUT -p tcp -m state --state NEW --dport 636 -j ACCEPT # LDAP over SSL


Maintenance operations

Export database

The whole database may be exported as ldif file using this command: 

slapcat


Get current configuration: 

slapcat –b cn=config


Test

Install a LDAP client and test to access the server. It should be OK ! ^-^

See the following page to get more information: LDAP client



Installation # Encryption – SSL

By default OpenLDAP communication is not encrypted. Therefore, if some user have clear password anyone can used them.


Generate server certificates

See SSL server documentation to generate a certificate for the current server.


-- Hints --

  • Do not encrypt your private key
  • You cannot generate 2 certificates with the same server name.


If you already have a server certificate for the current FQDN, please use it!


Make files accessible for OpenLDAP

You have to copy your server private key + server certificate and CA certificate. 

mkdir /etc/ldap/ssl
cd /etc/ldap/ssl
cp /srv/ssl/private/ldapServer.nopass.key ldapServer.key
cp /srv/ssl/certs/ldapServer.cert.pem ldapServer.pem
cp /srv/ssl/cacerts.pem .
chown -R root:openldap /etc/ldap/ssl


... Symlink might work but you can have some rights issues. It's just simpler - in my case - to copy the data.


Register certificates

SLAPD service

Since OpenLDAP 2.4 there is no more "slapd.conf" file.

All the configuration is now dynamic and set in database.


Create the .ldif file 

vim /etc/ldap/slapd.d/tls.ldif

Add the following params: 

dn: cn=config
add: olcTLSCACertificateFile
olcTLSCACertificateFile: /etc/ldap/ssl/cacerts.pem
-
add: olcTLSCertificateFile
olcTLSCertificateFile: /etc/ldap/ssl/ldapServer.pem
-
add: olcTLSCertificateKeyFile
olcTLSCertificateKeyFile: /etc/ldap/ssl/ldapServer.key


Adjust rights 

chown openldap:openldap /etc/ldap/slapd.d/tls.ldif


Apply the configuration 

ldapmodify -Y EXTERNAL -H ldapi:/// -f /etc/ldap/slapd.d/tls.ldif


Allow TLS protocol 

vim /etc/default/slapd


Add the "ldaps" protocol (line 24): 

SLAPD_SERVICES="ldap:/// ldapi:/// ldaps:///"

# For more security you can now restrict the LDAP to localhost
SLAPD_SERVICES="ldap://127.0.0.1:389/ ldaps:/// ldapi:///"


Restart the service 

/etc/init.d/slapd restart


OpenLDAP configuration

Edit the LDAP configuration 

vim /etc/ldap/ldap.conf


Adjust the TLS certificate path 

TLS_CACERT      /etc/ldap/ssl/cacerts.pem

You have to use the same as before in the "slapd" configuration.


Restart service 

service slapd restart


Now you can connect to the server on port 686 and test your LDAP server over TLS!


Bonus

Now you can edit your firewall and close the port 389



Apache 2

See Apache_2#Apache_2_configuration_.23_LDAP_authentication



Virtual host / service configuration
