# NetAuth LDAP Server
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The NetAuth LDAP server acts as a bridge that allows legacy systems
|
||||||
|
that understand LDAP to gain a read-only view of data in the NetAuth
|
||||||
|
server.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
It is recommended to install the NetAuth LDAP server on each host that
|
||||||
|
requires this interface and to bind it to the loopback interface.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The format that the LDAP bridge exposes data in is slightly different
|
||||||
|
to that which is presented to an actual NetAuth client. The groups
|
||||||
|
are presented in a flattened format with all expansions processed, and
|
||||||
|
all groups are precented under a special `cn=groups` path. Similarly,
|
||||||
|
entities are presented under a `cn=entities` path under the base DN.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Speaking of the base DN, NetAuth doesn't have such a concept, so the
|
||||||
|
LDAP bridge takes this as a seperate configuration item on startup.
|
||||||
|
The provided format must be a valid domain name that will be split on
|
||||||
|
`.`. Prepended to this will be `dc=netauth` to clearly signify that
|
||||||
|
the data retrieved is coming from NetAuth.
