This example will help you to create user in dolibarr from your users in your lldap server from a specific group and to login with the password from the lldap server.
In Dolibarr, install the LDAP module from Home
-> Modules/Applications
Go to the configuration of this module and fill it like this:
- Users and groups synchronization:
LDAP -> Dolibarr
- Contacts' synchronization:
No
- Type:
OpenLdap
- Version:
Version 3
- Primary server:
ldap://example.com
- Secondary server:
Empty
- Server port: port
3890
- Server DN:
dc=example,dc=com
- Use TLS:
No
- Administrator DN:
uid=admin,ou=people,dc=example,dc=com
- Administrator password:
secret
Click on modify then "TEST LDAP CONNECTION". You should get this result on the bottom:
TCP connect to LDAP server successful (Server=ldap://example.com, Port=389)
Connect/Authenticate to LDAP server successful (Server=ldap://example.com, Port=389, Admin=uid=admin,ou=people,dc=example,dc=com, Password=**********)
LDAP server configured for version 3
And two new tabs will appear on the top: Users
and Groups
.
We will use only Users
in this example to get the users we want to import.
The tab Groups
would be to import groups.
Click on the Users
tab and fill it like this:
- Users' DN:
ou=people,dc=example,dc=com
- List of objectClass:
person
- Search filter:
memberOf=cn=yournamegroup,ou=groups,dc=example,dc=com
(or if you don't have a group for your users, leave the search filter empty)
- Full name:
cn
- Name:
sn
- First name:
givenname
- Login
uid
- Email address
mail
Click on "MODIFY" and then on "TEST A LDAP SEARCH".
You should get the number of users in the group or all users if you didn't use a filter.
Navigate to Users & Groups
-> New Users
.
Click on the blank form "Users in LDAP database", you will get the list of the users in the group filled above. With the "GET" button, you will import the selected user.
Modify your conf.php
in your dolibarr folder in htdocs/conf
.
Replace
// Authentication settings
$dolibarr_main_authentication='dolibarr';
with:
// Authentication settings
// Only add "ldap" to only login using the ldap server, or/and "dolibar" to compare with local users. In any case, you need to have the user existing in dolibarr.
$dolibarr_main_authentication='ldap,dolibarr';
$dolibarr_main_auth_ldap_host='ldap://127.0.0.1:3890';
$dolibarr_main_auth_ldap_port='3890';
$dolibarr_main_auth_ldap_version='3';
$dolibarr_main_auth_ldap_servertype='openldap';
$dolibarr_main_auth_ldap_login_attribute='uid';
$dolibarr_main_auth_ldap_dn='ou=people,dc=example,dc=com';
$dolibarr_main_auth_ldap_admin_login='uid=admin,ou=people,dc=example,dc=com';
$dolibarr_main_auth_ldap_admin_pass='secret';
You can add this line to enable debug in case anything is wrong:
$dolibarr_main_auth_ldap_debug='true';
