How LDAP Auth works for Joomla

Tagged:  

There is really pretty bad docs around for for the Joomla LDAP auth and what the various fields do, so here is the information for version 1.6.3, straight from the source.

So firstly, an LDAP connection is made using the host, port, protocol version, TLS and referrals settings. Next comes the two authentication methods, Search and Bind Directly as User (bind) (I don't know why they are called Authorisation Methods in the Plugin Parameters as they are used for authentication).

For search, a bind to the LDAP server is performed using the Connect username and password or an anonymous bind if the Connect username is not set. If the field User's DN is set, the username for the bind will be the result of replacing the [username] parameter in the User's DN field with the authentication username, otherwise the plain authentication username will be used. If the bind is successful, the user search string is created by replacing the value [search] with the authenticating user's username the search made on the Base DN. If the user is found, a bind is then attempted with the user's DN and their authentication password. The success or failure of authentcation is recorded and the user details found from the search record for later use.

For bind authentication, a bind attempt is made straight away with the authenticating user's username and password. Again, if the field User's DN is set, the username for the bind will be the result of replacing the [username] parameter in the User's DN field with the authentication username, otherwise the plain authentication username will be used. If the bind is successful, the user search string is created by replacing the value [search] with the authenticating user's username the search made on the Base DN and the user's details are recorded for later use.

Now if the authentication method was successful, the user's username, email and fullname are retrieved from the user details using the "Map: User ID", "Map: E-mail" and "Map: Full Name" configuration parameters respectively.

The result of this is that for authenticating the Active Directory you need to either:

1) Use "Bind Directly as User" and have users authenticate using their userPrincipalName, e.g. username@domain.local, and have the search as uerPrincipalName=[search].
or
2) Use "Search" and enter the details of an admin user into Connect username/password. Then you can use any AD attribute in the search field as long as it is unique. Most likely you will want to use sAMAccountName.
