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

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