Source

Installation

General instructions on installing Trac plugins can be found on the TracPlugins page.

Configuration

Step 1 - Enable plugin

Please remember to enable Account Manager as well as this plugin.

Step 2 - Configure plugin

There are only a few fields that need to be configured:

bind_server

The LDAP server to connect to. The format is ldap[s]://host[:port].

bind_anonymous

Whether anonymous binding to the server is allowed.

bind_dn

If anonymous binding is not allowed, please specify a bind_dn.

bind_passwd

If anonymous binding is not allowed, please specify a binding password.

user_searchbase

The base of the tree on which the user is searched. A sub-tree search is performed.

user_searchfilter

The filter to find users in the tree. The default is "objectClass=inetOrgPerson", which should work in most cases.

user_matchfilter

The field of the record to match username to when authenticating. This is almost always "uid=%s".

Step 3 - List users

Once it is set up correctly, all the users will be automatically available by selecting Accounts/Users on the left panel. There is no need to hand create the user list, which is the beauty of the LDAP authentication plugin.
