Basic Auth + LDAP2011/05/29

	Configure httpd and set a page that people must authenticate and the authentication is from LDAP server. Therefore it's necessarry to run LDAP server in your LAN.
[1]	It needs 'mod_authnz_ldap7 module, but it's loaded by default. If your httpd does not load it, add following lines in your httpd.conf. LoadModule ldap_module modules/mod_ldap.so LoadModule authnz_ldap_module modules/mod_authnz_ldap.so Following example shows 'test' directory requires an authentication.

[root@www ~]#

vi /etc/httpd/conf.d/auth.conf

# create new

<IfModule authnz_ldap_module>
   <Directory /var/www/html/test>
      SSLRequireSSL
      AuthName "Authentication"
      AuthType Basic
      AuthBasicProvider ldap
      AuthLDAPURL ldap://10.0.0.100/dc=srv,dc=world?uid?sub?(objectClass=*)
      Require ldap-filter objectClass=posixAccount
   </Directory>
