Ce chapitre ne concerne pas Dolibarr. Il contient un exemple d'instructions pour installer un annuaire LDAP qui pourra éventuellement être interfacé avec Dolibarr.

Install LDAP server

• With Ubuntu or Debian, install package slapd and ldap.
• With Windows, you can use the install program of OpenLDAP.

Once this is done, you have an empty LDAP server launched as a service.

Setup server

For Ubuntu, see page http://doc.ubuntu-fr.org/openldap-server

Otherwise the DN root, user and password to connect are available into file slapd.conf. Port may also be into this file, if not, it is default port value: 389.

Stop the service

Modify file slapd.conf to use your domain name (replace all dc=my-domain,dc=com by value of your choice).

Modify file slapd.conf also to add includes of schemas you will need to declare your LDAP objects.

include		./schema/core.schema
include		./schema/cosine.schema
include		./schema/inetorgperson.schema
include		./schema/nis.schema

Restart the service.

Test server

With a LDAP browser like JXplorer, you can try to connect to your LDAP server using the admin LDAP user. Credentials by default are:

• Server: Localhost
• Port: 389
• User: cn=admin,dc=example,dc=com or cn=Manager,dc=example,dc=com
• Password: secret
• Base DN (optionnel): keep empty of set dc=yourdomain,dc=com

Créer votre arbre LDAP

L'étape suivante consiste à définir les informations à stocker dans l'annuaire LDAP et leur organisation.

Créer un fichier init.ldif contenant votre organisation. Par exemple:

# Organization
dn: dc=mydomain,dc=com
objectclass: dcObject
objectclass: organization
dc: mydomain
o: Description of annuary
description: The description of annuary
# Setting up container for Users OU
dn: ou=People,dc=mydomain,dc=com
objectclass: top
objectclass: organizationalUnit
ou: People
# Setting up container for groups
dn: ou=Groups,dc=mydomain,dc=com
objectclass: top
objectclass: organizationalUnit
ou: Groups

Executer le fichier avec le compte administrateur LDAP:

ldapadd -f init.ldif -D "cn=Manager,dc=mydomain,dc=com" -w secret
