Hello list, I’m brand new to usage of LAM. I have installed it (through Nginx + PHP-FPM) on a small LDAP server to be able to perform some configuration using a web/graphical interface rather than going on with tedious scripting.
But it is not really clear to me how to use LAM with my setting.
Concerning my user entries, the current hierarchy of the LDAP is as follows
(obviously, best seen in a monospace font):
dn=domain,dn=name,dn=org (indeed, something else, but of no relevance here)
+-- ou=people (an organizational unit in which all accounts are)
+-- ou=dept1 (a first department)
| --- cn=user1
| --- cn=user2
| .....
+-- ou=dept2 (a second dept., bigger)
+-- ou=team1 (1st team of department 2)
| --- cn=userXX
| .....
+-- ou=team2 (2nd team of department 2)
--- cn=userYY
I have the impression I have to configure one profile for each type of user, so
that their base DN is complete. In other words, I have the feeling I have to
configure:
Profile 1: base DN: ou=dept1,ou=people,dn=domain,dn=name,dn=org
Profile 2: base DN: ou=team1,ou=dept2,ou=people,dn=domain,dn=name,dn=org
Profile 3: base DN: ou=team2,ou=dept2,ou=people,dn=domain,dn=name,dn=org
This seems tedious to me, especially since I have a couple of extra other ou
(under ou=people,dn=domain,dn=name,dn=org) and indeed all these accounts should
(except for their base DN) be rather identical in terms of configuration.
What am I missing?
Another (but related) question: is it possible to create some of the
intermediate ou within LAM, or should I turn to ‘pure LDAP’ for this purpose?
Thanks in advance for any pointer or help!
Serge.
