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

511 The <mapping> subelements establish the relationship between mysql fields and LDAP attributes. The element name
512 is the column in mysql, with the "is" characteristic set to the LDAP attribute name. Optionally, any content
513 between the element tags is taken as the default value. In this example, the default categorycode is "PT" (for
514 patron).
516 =head1 CONFIGURATION
518 Once a user has been accepted by the LDAP server, there are several possibilities for how Koha will behave, depending on
519 your configuration and the presence of a matching Koha user in your local DB:
521 LOCAL_USER
522 OPTION UPDATE REPLICATE EXISTS? RESULT
523 A1 1 1 1 OK : We're updating them anyway.
524 A2 1 1 0 OK : We're adding them anyway.
525 B1 1 0 1 OK : We update them.
526 B2 1 0 0 FAIL: We cannot add new user.
527 C1 0 1 1 OK : We do nothing. (maybe should update password?)
528 C2 0 1 0 OK : We add the new user.
529 D1 0 0 1 OK : We do nothing. (maybe should update password?)
530 D2 0 0 0 FAIL: We cannot add new user.
532 Note: failure here just means that Koha will fallback to checking the local DB. That is, a given user could login with
533 their LDAP password OR their local one. If this is a problem, then you should enable update and supply a mapping for
534 password. Then the local value will be updated at successful LDAP login and the passwords will be synced.
536 If you choose NOT to update local users, the borrowers table will not be affected at all.
537 Note that this means that patron passwords may appear to change if LDAP is ever disabled, because
538 the local table never contained the LDAP values.
540 =head2 auth_by_bind
542 Binds as the user instead of retrieving their record. Recommended if update disabled.
544 =head2 principal_name
546 Provides an optional sprintf-style format for manipulating the userid before the bind.
547 Even though the userPrincipalName is one intended target, any uniquely identifying
548 attribute that the server allows to be used for binding could be used.
550 Currently, principal_name only operates when auth_by_bind is enabled.
552 =head2 update_password
554 If this tag is left out or set to a true value, then the user's LDAP password
555 will be stored (hashed) in the local Koha database. If you don't want this
556 to happen, then set the value of this to '0'. Note that if passwords are not
557 stored locally, and the connection to the LDAP system fails, then the users
558 will not be able to log in at all.
560 =head2 Active Directory
562 The auth_by_bind and principal_name settings are recommended for Active Directory.
564 Under default Active Directory rules, we cannot determine the distinguishedName attribute from the Koha userid as reliably as
565 we would typically under openldap. Instead of:
567 distinguishedName: CN=barnes.7,DC=my_company,DC=com
569 We might get:
571 distinguishedName: CN=Barnes\, Jim,OU=Test Accounts,OU=User Accounts,DC=my_company,DC=com
573 Matching that would require us to know more info about the account (firstname, surname) and to include punctuation and whitespace
574 in Koha userids. But the userPrincipalName should be consistent, something like:
576 userPrincipalName: barnes.7@my_company.com
578 Therefore it is often easier to bind to Active Directory with userPrincipalName, effectively the
579 canonical email address for that user, or what it would be if email were enabled for them. If Koha userid values
580 will match the username portion of the userPrincipalName, and the domain suffix is the same for all users, then use principal_name
581 like this:
582 <principal_name>%s@core.my_company.com</principal_name>
584 The user of the previous example, barnes.7, would then attempt to bind as:
585 barnes.7@core.my_company.com
