Debian Squeeze LDAP Server With OpenLDAP And phpLDAPadmin
This tutorial will show you how you can set up an LDAP and webinterface to manage the LDAP server on Debian Squeeze.
phpLDAPadmin url: http://phpldapadmin.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/Main_Pageif(typeof __ez_fad_position != ‘undefined’){__ez_fad_position(‘div-gpt-ad-howtoforge_com-medrectangle-3-0’)};
See screenshots of phpLDAP admin here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/phpldapadmin/
Server name: ldap.example.com
Domain name: example.com
Server IP: 192.168.0.2
Now we want to make sure the
server is up to date:
apt-get
update
apt-get upgrade
First we install slapd and
create a password for administrator:
apt-get
install slapd
When prompted enter a password
for the administrator of the LDAP server, I choose the password passw0rd
in this example.if(typeof __ez_fad_position != ‘undefined’){__ez_fad_position(‘div-gpt-ad-howtoforge_com-medrectangle-4-0’)};
Now we need to install
ldap-utils and phpLDAPadmin, now apache2 and php will also be installed
because it’s a part of the dependencies for phpLDAPadmin.
apt-get
install ldap-utils phpldapadmin
Open /etc/ldap/ldap.conf with
your editor, e.g. nano:
nano
/etc/ldap/ldap.conf
and uncomment BASE and URI and edit so it
looks like this:
#
# LDAP Defaults
#
# See ldap.conf(5) for details
# This file should be world readable but not world writable.
BASE dc=example,dc=com
URI ldap://127.0.0.1
#SIZELIMIT 12
#TIMELIMIT 15
#DEREF never
If you want to edit domain name
I
recommend to run following command:
dpkg-reconfigure
slapd
Select
NO and follow the guide, type in your domain, e.g. example.com, choose
recommend settings.
Now open
/etc/phpldapadmin/config.php:
$servers = new Datastore();
$servers->newServer('ldap_pla');
$servers->setValue('server','name','My LDAP Server');
$servers->setValue('server','host','192.168.0.2');
$servers->setValue('server','port',389);
$servers->setValue('server','base',array('dc=example,dc=com'));
$servers->setValue('login','bind_id','cn=admin,dc=example,dc=com');
Your server is now up and
running, ready to be used. and you should be able to access
phpLDAPadmin on http://192.168.0.2/phpldapadmin; log in with following
password passw0rd
