445 =head1 LDAP Configuration
447 This module is specific to LDAP authentification. It requires Net::LDAP package and one or more
448 working LDAP servers.
450 * Modify ldapserver element in KOHA_CONF
451 * Establish field mapping in <mapping> element.
453 For example, if your user records are stored according to the inetOrgPerson schema, RFC#2798,
454 the username would match the "uid" field, and the password should match the "userpassword" field.
456 Make sure that ALL required fields are populated by your LDAP database (and mapped in KOHA_CONF).
457 What are the required fields? Well, in mysql you can check the database table "borrowers" like this:

581 Once a user has been accepted by the LDAP server, there are several possibilities for how Koha will behave, depending on
582 your configuration and the presence of a matching Koha user in your local DB:
585 OPTION UPDATE REPLICATE EXISTS? RESULT
586 A1 1 1 1 OK : We're updating them anyway.
587 A2 1 1 0 OK : We're adding them anyway.
588 B1 1 0 1 OK : We update them.
589 B2 1 0 0 FAIL: We cannot add new user.
590 C1 0 1 1 OK : We do nothing. (maybe should update password?)
591 C2 0 1 0 OK : We add the new user.
592 D1 0 0 1 OK : We do nothing. (maybe should update password?)
593 D2 0 0 0 FAIL: We cannot add new user.
595 Note: failure here just means that Koha will fallback to checking the local DB. That is, a given user could login with
596 their LDAP password OR their local one. If this is a problem, then you should enable update and supply a mapping for
597 password. Then the local value will be updated at successful LDAP login and the passwords will be synced.
599 If you choose NOT to update local users, the borrowers table will not be affected at all.
600 Note that this means that patron passwords may appear to change if LDAP is ever disabled, because
601 the local table never contained the LDAP values.
605 Binds as the user instead of retrieving their record. Recommended if update disabled.
607 =head2 principal_name
609 Provides an optional sprintf-style format for manipulating the userid before the bind.
610 Even though the userPrincipalName is one intended target, any uniquely identifying
611 attribute that the server allows to be used for binding could be used.
613 Currently, principal_name only operates when auth_by_bind is enabled.
615 =head2 update_password
617 If this tag is left out or set to a true value, then the user's LDAP password
618 will be stored (hashed) in the local Koha database. If you don't want this
619 to happen, then set the value of this to '0'. Note that if passwords are not
620 stored locally, and the connection to the LDAP system fails, then the users
621 will not be able to log in at all.
623 =head2 Active Directory
625 The auth_by_bind and principal_name settings are recommended for Active Directory.
627 Under default Active Directory rules, we cannot determine the distinguishedName attribute from the Koha userid as reliably as
628 we would typically under openldap. Instead of:
630 distinguishedName: CN=barnes.7,DC=my_company,DC=com
634 distinguishedName: CN=Barnes\, Jim,OU=Test Accounts,OU=User Accounts,DC=my_company,DC=com
636 Matching that would require us to know more info about the account (firstname, surname) and to include punctuation and whitespace
637 in Koha userids. But the userPrincipalName should be consistent, something like:
639 userPrincipalName: barnes.7@my_company.com
641 Therefore it is often easier to bind to Active Directory with userPrincipalName, effectively the
642 canonical email address for that user, or what it would be if email were enabled for them. If Koha userid values
643 will match the username portion of the userPrincipalName, and the domain suffix is the same for all users, then use principal_name
645 <principal_name>%s@core.my_company.com</principal_name>
647 The user of the previous example, barnes.7, would then attempt to bind as:
648 barnes.7@core.my_company.com
