opennebula extend(expending) auth module ldap
LDAP Authentication addon permits users to have the same credentials as in LDAP, so effectively centralizing authentication
let any correctly authenticated LDAP user to use OpenNebula
1,prerequistries
Addon requires the ‘net/ldap‘ ruby library provided by the ‘net-ldap‘ gem
Addon will not install any Ldap server or configure it in any way. It will not create, delete or modify any entry in the Ldap server it connects to. The only requirement is the ability to connect to an already running Ldap server and being able to perform a successful ldapbind operation and have a user able to perform searches of users, therefore no special attributes or values are required in the LDIF entry of the user authenticating.
2,Considerations & Limitations
Transport Layer Security(TLS) as on so做ssl for apache httpd https
LDAP auth driver has a bug that does not let it connect to TLS LDAP instances
3,configuration
Configuration file for auth module is located at /etc/one/auth/ldap_auth.conf
. This is the default configuration
:user_field | Field in ldap that holds the user name |
To enable ldap
authentication the described parameters should be configured. OpenNebula must be also configured to enable external authentication. Uncomment these lines in /etc/one/oned.conf
and add ldap
and default
(more on this later) as an enabled authentication method.
AUTH_MAD = [ executable = "one_auth_mad", authn = "ssh,x509,ldap,server_cipher,server_x509"]
To be able to use this driver for users that are still not in the user database you must set it to the default
driver. To do this go to the auth drivers directory and copy the directory ldap
to default
. In system-wide installations you can do this using this command:
$ cp -R /var/lib/one/remotes/auth/ldap /var/lib/one/remotes/auth/default
User Management
Using LDAP authentication module the administrator doesn‘t need to create users with oneuser
command as this will be automatically done. The user should add its credentials to $ONE_AUTH
file (usually $HOME/.one/one_auth
) in this fashion:
<user_dn>:ldap_password
where
<user_dn>
the DN of the user in the LDAP serviceldap_password
is the password of the user in the LDAP service
DN‘s With Special Characters
When the user dn or password contains blank spaces the LDAP driver will escape them so they can be used to create OpenNebula users. Therefore, users needs to set up their $ONE_AUTH
file accordingly.
Users can easily create escaped $ONE_AUTH tokens with the command oneuser encode <user> [<password>]
, as an example:
$ oneuser encode ‘cn=First Name,dc=institution,dc=country‘ ‘pass word‘cn=First%20Name,dc=institution,dc=country:pass%20word
The output of this command should be put in the $ONE_AUTH
file.
Active Directory
LDAP Auth drivers are able to connect to Active Directory. You will need:
- Active Directory server with support for simple user/password authentication.
- User with read permissions in the Active Directory user‘s tree.
You will need to change the following values in the configuration file (/etc/one/auth/ldap_auth.conf
):
:user
: the Active Directory user with read permissions in the user‘s tree plus the domain. For example for user Administrator at domain win.opennebula.org you specify it asAdministrator@win.opennebula.org
:password
: password of this user:host
: hostname or IP of the Domain Controller:base
: base DN to search for users. You need to decompose the full domain name and use each part as DN component. Example, forwin.opennebula.org
you will get te base DN: DN=win,DN=opennebula,DN=org:user_field
: set it tosAMAccountName
:group
parameter is still not supported for Active Directory, leave it commented.
Enabling LDAP auth in Sunstone
Update the /etc/one/sunstone-server.conf
:auth parameter to use the opennebula
:
:auth: opennebula
Using this method the credentials provided in the login screen will be sent to the OpenNebula core and the authentication will be delegated to the OpenNebula auth system, using the specified driver for that user. Therefore any OpenNebula auth driver can be used through this method to authenticate the user (i.e: LDAP).
To automatically encode credentials as explained in DN‘s with special characters section also add this parameter to sunstone configuration:
:encode_user_password: true
