Hello everybody,
I'm glad to announce the addition of a new module for OpenSER called "LDAP module". This module implements the following features:
- LDAP search function taking an LDAP URL as input
- LDAP result parsing functions to store LDAP data as AVP
- Support for accessing multiple LDAP servers
- LDAP SIMPLE authentication
Is there planned a module ldap_auth to proxy authentication as mysql_auth and so?
there is an auth_ldap on the tracker, but I think doesn't make sense to add it as the auth module can perform authentication taking the username and password from pseudo-variables (including AVP). So, the same functionality is achieved by loading username and password in AVPs using the ldap module, and perform authentication via auth module.
The ldap module has a lot of good stuff related to connection to server, failover, etc., and should be preferred to be used. I tried to start a tutorial about LDAP auth with OpenSER, should give you some hints to begin, contributions there are welcome.
Cheers, Daniel
