Active Directory authentication
« on: March 28, 2018, 06:15:43 pm »
Hello, I discover NeDi and it's really a great tool. Now, I have a topology of my network, a backup of my configurations and a complete inventory of my network equipment.

However, I would like to add LDAP authentication but it does not work, as for this post: https://forum.nedi.ch/index.php?topic=1499.msg5975#msg5975

I can create a user, but when I try to create a second one, I get this error message: Duplicate entry '' for key 'PRIMARY'.

I'm using NeDi on CentOS 7 and my domain controller is in Windows Server 2012R2


Thanks for your help !

HI Saguu,
Did you configure the LDAP auth in nedi.conf?

if yes
Could you post your config string here? so we can help further if we see any issue.

Hello,

Here is my nedi.conf file:

# Authentication for GUI
guiauth      local
guiauth      ldap

# Set Ldapserver parameters
#      host         port   rootpw      basedn      rootdn   loginattr
;ldapsrv   ldaps://host.domain   636   PASSWORD   DC=XX,DC=YYY   USER   uid
;ldapsrv   ldap://domain.int   389   pass      ou=PROD,dc=domain,dc=int   cn=user,ou=account,ou=admin,ou=prod,dc=domain,dc=int   cn
ldapsrv   ldap://NameOfServer   389   MyPass   OU=XXX,OU=XX,OU=Country,DC=my,DC=domain,DC=dom   admin_xx      sAMAccountName

# Map attributes
#      adm   net   dsk   mon   mgr   oth   mail   phone
;ldapmap   cisco   cisco   cisco   support   manager   users   mail   telephoneNumber


I observed that if I indicate the complete DN of my rootdn, it does not work, I am obliged to indicate only the samaccountname of the rootdn.

Do you have space in OU names? if yes you need to type it like this

OU=Service+Accounts

Comment out the "guiauth     local" in nedi.conf.

see if this can be helpful, or post  the actual string without password.

Hello,

Sorry for the delay  :o

I have spaces in my OU names. I tried with the method you tell me, but it does not work anymore. I decided to indicate the parent OU that has no space.

However, it still does not work. Here is the contents of the file :

# Authentication for GUI users can be set to:
# local, sso, pam, radius, ldap or none
# Append -pass to use the session user (entering pw each time) for device access (e.g. in Devices-Write)
;guiauth      local
guiauth      ldap

# Override the Login and Logout URLs (e.g. for your SSO setup)
# The defaults will be used if commented
#      Login URL      Logout URL
;authurls   User-Profile.php   index.php

# Set Radiusserver(s) parameters, if selected above
#      host      port   secret      timeout   retries
;radserver   localhost   1812   testing123   2   1

# Set Ldapserver parameters, if selected above:
#      host         port   rootpw      basedn      rootdn   loginattr
;ldapsrv   ldaps://host.domain   636   PASSWORD   DC=XX,DC=YYY   USER   uid
;ldapsrv   ldap://domain.int   389   pass      ou=PROD,dc=domain,dc=int   cn=user,ou=account,ou=admin,ou=prod,dc=domain,dc=int   cn
ldapsrv   ldap://UKLLOADS01   389   Spleen/*66   OU=LLO,OU=UK,OU=Country,DC=eua,DC=tonivn,DC=net   NeDilookupUser      sAMAccountName


And here is a screenshot of the error:



Thank you for your help !

your string
ldapsrv   ldap://UKLLOADS01   389   Spleen/*66   OU=LLO,OU=UK,OU=Country,DC=eua,DC=tonivn,DC=net   NeDilookupUser      sAMAccountName

My string
after *66 (which is password in my case)  look slike this.

 OU=organisation+ICT+Staff,OU=ICT,OU=staff,DC=eastern,DC=det,DC=win  CN=ServicesNedi,OU=Service+Accounts,DC=eastern,DC=det,DC=win sAMAccountName

use it with connection of a service account. and put the password at  "Spleen/*66"

This should fix or you have a option of  getting paid support from Remo Rickli.

Following this guide I got LDAP lookup working in my NeDi installation. The only difference I have in my config is "sAMAccountName" is not used but the "cn" option is used instead.

So my string looks like this (obvious parts changed):
Code: [Select]
ldapsrv ldap://adm.domain.com 389 SuperSecretPassword DC=adm,DC=domain,DC=com CN=Network+Operator,OU=Service+Account,OU=Special+Accounts,DC=adm,DC=domain,DC=com cn

Hi all, I have an issue using ldap and local authentication at same time.
I obtain the choice on home page using
guiauth      local,ldap
but only ldap users and root are accepted, not a new local user.
If I remove ldap, new user is authenticated.
I use NeDi 2.0.120.
Any suggestion would be appreciated.

In my configuration I only have ldap, not local,ldap.
With this I can log in with both ldap and local accounts.

Even if I remove local and keep ldap, I cannot login with local user other than root.

Hi,

I cannot get my nedi to work with our AD.
Can you please post (or anyone else that got it working) your nedi configuration regarding the ldap here?

Is there a way that only some members of a group can login in nedi?

Thank you
