nginx LDAP with Foxpass
1. Install the nginx module
This is the module: https://github.com/kvspb/nginx-auth-ldap
Here are the instructions: http://deezx.github.io/blog/2015/04/24/how-to-configure-nginx-with-ldap-authentication/
2. Set up your nginx config
(Assuming our foxpass binder is "cn=nginx,dc=example,dc=com")
Add this in the 'http' section on the main nginx.conf
http {
...
...
...
ldap_server foxpass {
url "ldaps://ldap.foxpass.com:636/dc=example,dc=com?uid?sub?";
binddn "cn=myapp,dc=example,dc=com";
binddn_passwd "YOURPASSWORD";
group_attribute groups;
group_attribute_is_dn on;
require valid_user;
}
include /etc/nginx/conf.d/*.conf;
}
Then in a 'server' section in another conf or in nginx.conf, you can reference the LDAP name
server {
listen 443 default ssl;
...
...
...
...
...
location / {
auth_ldap "Please enter your Foxpass credentials";
auth_ldap_servers foxpass;
...
...
}
}
3. Restart nginx
(make sure no previous processes are running) and you should be prompted for credentials in your browser
