<para>After you <link linkend="a_installation">installed</link> LAM you can

configure it to fit your needs. The complete configuration can be done

inside the application. There is no need to edit configuration files.</para>

<para>Please point you browser to the location where you installed LAM. E.g.
|
|
for Debian/RPM this is http://yourServer/lam. If you installed LAM via the
|

tar.bz2 then this may vary. You should see the following page:</para>

access LAM. The IPs can be specified as full IP (e.g. 123.123.123.123)
|

or with the "*" wildcard (e.g. 123.123.123.*). Users which try to access

<para>By default, LAM uses the CA certificates that are preinstalled on

|
your system. This will work if you connect via SSL/TLS to an LDAP server
|
|
that uses a certificate signed by a well-known CA. In case you use your
|

own CA (e.g. company internal CA) you can import the CA certificates
|

here.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Please note that this can affect other web applications on the
|
|
same server if they require different certificates. There seem to be

|
problems on Debian systems and you may also need to restart Apache. In
|
|
case of any problems please delete the uploaded certificates and use the
|
|
<link linkend="ssl_certSystem">system setup</link>.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>You can either upload a DER/PEM formatted certificate file or
|
|
import the certificates directly from an LDAP server that is available

with LDAP+SSL (ldaps://). LAM will automatically override system
|
|
certificates if at least one certificate is uploaded/imported.</para>

can also delete single certificates from the list.</para>

<para>The first one is to specify a fixed list of LDAP DNs that are

|
|
|
|
<para>The second one is to let LAM search for the DN in your
|
|
directory. E.g. if a user logs in with the user name "joe" then LAM
|
|
will do an LDAP search for this user name. When it finds a matching DN
|
|
then it will use this to authenticate the user. The wildcard "%USER%"
|
|
will be replaced by "joe" in this example. This way you can provide
|
|
login by user name, email address or other LDAP attributes.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Additionally, you can enable HTTP authentication when using
|
|
"LDAP search". This way the web server is responsible to authenticate
|
|
your users. LAM will use the given user name + password for the LDAP
|
|
login. You can also configure this to setup advanced login
|
|
restrictions (e.g. require group memberships for login). To setup HTTP
|
|
authentication in Apache please see this <ulink
|
|
url="http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/howto/auth.html">link</ulink>
|
|
and an example for LDAP authentication <link lang=""

|

|

<para><emphasis role="bold">Hint:</emphasis> LDAP search with group

<para>LAM supports 2-factor authentication for your users. This means
|
|
the user will not only authenticate by user+password but also with
|
|
e.g. a token generated by a mobile device. This adds more security
|
|
because the token is generated on a physically separated device
|

(typically mobile phone).</para>

<title>Typical scenarios</title>

<para>This is a list of typical scenarios how your LDAP environment may

look like and how to structure the server profiles for it.</para>

<section>

<title>Simple: One LDAP directory managed by a small group of
|
|
admins</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>This is the easiest and most common scenario. You want to manage
|
|
a single LDAP server and there is only one or a few admins. In this
|
|
case just create one server profile and you are done. The admins may
|
|
be either specified as a fixed list or by using an LDAP search at
|
|
login time.</para>

<title>Advanced: One LDAP server which is managed by different admin
|
|
groups</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>Large organisations may have one big LDAP directory for all
|
|
user/group accounts. But the users are managed by different groups of
|
|
admins (e.g. departments, locations, subsidiaries, ...). The users are
|
|
typically divided into organisational units in the LDAP tree. Admins
|
|
may only manage the users in their part of the tree.</para>

|
|
</mediaobject>
|
|
</screenshot>
|
|
|
|
<para>In this situation it is recommended to create one server profile
|
|
for each admin group (e.g. department). Setup the LDAP suffixes in the
|
|
server profiles to point to the needed organisational units. E.g. use
|
|
ou=people,ou=department1,dc=company,dc=com or
|
|
ou=department1,ou=people,dc=company,dc=com as LDAP suffix for users.
|
|
Do the same for groups, hosts, ... This way each admin group will only
|
|
see its own users. You may want to use LDAP search for the LAM login
|
|
in this scenario. This will prevent that you need to update a server
|
|
profile if the number of admins changes.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para><emphasis role="bold">Attention:</emphasis> LAM's feature to
|
|
automatically find free UIDs/GIDs for new users/groups will not work
|
|
in this case. LAM uses the user/group suffix to search for already
|
|
assigned UIDs/GIDs. As an alternative you can specify different
|
|
UID/GID ranges for each department. Then the UIDs/GIDs will stay
|
|
unique for the whole directory.</para>

|
|
<title>Multiple LDAP servers</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>You can manage as many LDAP servers with LAM as you wish. This
|
|
scenario is similar to the advanced scenario above. Just create one
|
|
server profile for each LDAP server.</para>

<itemizedlist>
|

<listitem>
|
|
<para>Divide your LDAP tree in organisational units: This is

|
usually the best performing option. Put your accounts in several

organisational units and setup LAM as in the advanced scenario

above.</para>

<para>Increase memory limit: Increase the memory_limit parameter

this will slow down the response times of LAM.</para>
