There is a new capability showing up in the 2nd Beta Release. Looks like the Novell partnership is showing some influence. There is an eDirectory (or EDirectory) category, but unfortunately, no Help screens available.
If someone would point me at some information as to how this is supposed to work, and how it needs to be configured, I could do some testing. (hint, hint )
in the 5.816 release the eDirectory integration is not yet fully functional, there are some backend parts not working as expected.
In this config section you specify your eDirectory Server with IP, Port and the Tree Context ASL should authentiate the user. In our case we use the context - o=Astaro - o=Astaro,ou=RD
for example.
In the lower section you can configure the users of which groups are allowed to use the services - webadmin - http proxy - smtp proxy - socks proxy
just add the groupname there like this: - 'TestGroup' or the full DN - 'cn=TestGroup,ou=RD,o=Astaro'
if a user than wants to login into webadmin for example, his user credentials get verified against eDirectoy and we check if this user is part of the configured group, if yes, we grant access.
