375 =head1 NAME
377 C4::Auth - Authenticates Koha users
379 =head1 SYNOPSIS
381 use C4::Auth_with_ldap;
383 =head1 LDAP Configuration
385 This module is specific to LDAP authentification. It requires Net::LDAP package and one or more
386 working LDAP servers.
387 To use it :
388 * Modify ldapserver element in KOHA_CONF
389 * Establish field mapping in <mapping> element.
391 For example, if your user records are stored according to the inetOrgPerson schema, RFC#2798,
392 the username would match the "uid" field, and the password should match the "userpassword" field.
394 Make sure that ALL required fields are populated by your LDAP database (and mapped in KOHA_CONF).
395 What are the required fields? Well, in mysql you can check the database table "borrowers" like this:
397 mysql> show COLUMNS from borrowers;

512 The <mapping> subelements establish the relationship between mysql fields and LDAP attributes. The element name
513 is the column in mysql, with the "is" characteristic set to the LDAP attribute name. Optionally, any content
514 between the element tags is taken as the default value. In this example, the default categorycode is "PT" (for
515 patron).
517 =head1 CONFIGURATION
519 Once a user has been accepted by the LDAP server, there are several possibilities for how Koha will behave, depending on
520 your configuration and the presence of a matching Koha user in your local DB:
522 LOCAL_USER
523 OPTION UPDATE REPLICATE EXISTS? RESULT
524 A1 1 1 1 OK : We're updating them anyway.
525 A2 1 1 0 OK : We're adding them anyway.
526 B1 1 0 1 OK : We update them.
527 B2 1 0 0 FAIL: We cannot add new user.
528 C1 0 1 1 OK : We do nothing. (maybe should update password?)

531 D2 0 0 0 FAIL: We cannot add new user.
533 Note: failure here just means that Koha will fallback to checking the local DB. That is, a given user could login with
534 their LDAP password OR their local one. If this is a problem, then you should enable update and supply a mapping for
535 password. Then the local value will be updated at successful LDAP login and the passwords will be synced.
537 If you choose NOT to update local users, the borrowers table will not be affected at all.
538 Note that this means that patron passwords may appear to change if LDAP is ever disabled, because
539 the local table never contained the LDAP values.
541 =head2 auth_by_bind
543 Binds as the user instead of retrieving their record. Recommended if update disabled.
545 =head2 principal_name
547 Provides an optional sprintf-style format for manipulating the userid before the bind.
548 Even though the userPrincipalName is one intended target, any uniquely identifying
549 attribute that the server allows to be used for binding could be used.
551 Currently, principal_name only operates when auth_by_bind is enabled.
553 =head2 update_password
555 If this tag is left out or set to a true value, then the user's LDAP password
556 will be stored (hashed) in the local Koha database. If you don't want this
557 to happen, then set the value of this to '0'. Note that if passwords are not
558 stored locally, and the connection to the LDAP system fails, then the users
559 will not be able to log in at all.
561 =head2 Active Directory
563 The auth_by_bind and principal_name settings are recommended for Active Directory.
565 Under default Active Directory rules, we cannot determine the distinguishedName attribute from the Koha userid as reliably as
566 we would typically under openldap. Instead of:
568 distinguishedName: CN=barnes.7,DC=my_company,DC=com
570 We might get:
572 distinguishedName: CN=Barnes\, Jim,OU=Test Accounts,OU=User Accounts,DC=my_company,DC=com
574 Matching that would require us to know more info about the account (firstname, surname) and to include punctuation and whitespace
575 in Koha userids. But the userPrincipalName should be consistent, something like:
577 userPrincipalName: barnes.7@my_company.com
579 Therefore it is often easier to bind to Active Directory with userPrincipalName, effectively the
580 canonical email address for that user, or what it would be if email were enabled for them. If Koha userid values
581 will match the username portion of the userPrincipalName, and the domain suffix is the same for all users, then use principal_name
582 like this:
583 <principal_name>%s@core.my_company.com</principal_name>
585 The user of the previous example, barnes.7, would then attempt to bind as:
586 barnes.7@core.my_company.com
