Configure LDAP Authentication for OneFuse via Command Line

Overview

This guide will go over how to configure LDAP Authentication for the OneFuse Platform via the command line. This is a temporary/backup solution until the LDAP Integration has been added to the OneFuse UI.

Considerations

OneFuse Supported Versions: v1.2+

The initial configuration starts with a .sh script that is contained within the /opt/cloudbolt/initialize/ path on the appliance. Additional commands can be executed via the shell to see/manage the setup.

All user settings in the OneFuse UI, such as password, membership, etc will be reverted back to the original LDAP mappings if changed in the OneFuse UI.

Procedure

Run the setup.sh script

Establish an SSH session to the OneFuse Platform
Navigate to /opt/cloudbolt/initialize/
1. Command: cd /opt/cloudbolt/initialize/
Run the setup_fuse_domain.sh script
1. Command: ./setup_fuse_domain.sh
Configure the options as prompted
1. Domain: domain.com
2. FQDN or IP of Directory Server: ad.domain.com
3. Protocol [ldap or ldaps]: ldapor ldaps
4. Port: 389 or 686 or custom port
5. Domain Authentication Account [user@domain]: serviceaccount@domain.com
6. Domain Authentication Password: ***********
7. Base DN: DC=domain,DC=com
  1. Note: This base DN is used for user and group search. It is recommended to keep it closer to the root DN
8. Username [sAMAccountName]: sAMAccountName or other attribute
9. First Name [givenName]: givenName or other attribute
10. Last Name [sn]: sn or other attribute
11. Email [mail]: mail or other attribute
12. Group DN for Workspace Admins: CN=Workspace_Admins, OU=Group,DC=domain,DC=com
  1. Note: To skip this option, leave the field blank
13. Group DN for Workspace Members: CN=Workspace_Members, OU=Group,DC=domain,DC=com
  1. Note: To skip this option, leave the field blank
14. Group DN for Workspace Executors: CN=Workspace_Executors, OU=Group,DC=domain,DC=com
  1. Note: To skip this option, leave the field blank
15. Group DN for Workspace Viewers: CN=Workspace_Viewers, OU=Group,DC=domain,DC=com
  1. Note: To skip this option, leave the field blank
After filling in all fields, the logs will show LDAP configuration complete
This script can be ran additional times for either different domains or run against the same domain to update/modify the variables or attributes

Test the login to the OneFuse UI

Test the login to the UI using the following format for the username
1. Username: user@domain.com

Additional commands for LDAP configuration validation or modification

SSH into the OneFuse appliance and run the following command to open the python shell
1. /opt/cloudbolt/manage.py shell_plus

Command Description	Code	Example Return
Pre-requisite command for all sub commands The below command must be ran to determine and map the LDAP connection for all subsequent commands
List all LDAP configurations	`LDAPUtility.objects.all()`	`In [1]: LDAPUtility.objects.all()` `...:` `...:` `Out[1]: <QuerySet [<LDAPUtility: domain.com>]>`
Map to the LDAP configuration based on domain name	`ldap = LDAPUtility.objects.get(ldap_domain="domain.com")`	n/a
Subsequent commands With the `ldap` variable mapped to the LDAP configuration, the below commands can be executed to query/submit an action against the ldap configuration
Search Username in LDAP configuration	`ldap.runUserSearch("username")`	`In [7]: ldap.runUserSearch("username")` `Out[7]: [('CN=username,OU=Group,DC=domain,DC=com', {})]`
Delete LDAP configuration	`ldap.delete()`	n/a
