Description

Hi,

This is the auth.inc I have modified to handle AD group membership checking.

It does not support nested groups. Work on that point could be done but it would generate intensive ldap trafic between pfsense and directory server.

We need a patch of changes here. auth.inc has diverged too much at this point. And even then Ermal does not agree with parts of this patch so tagging 2.1.

Greetings!

I was able to use Eric's patch on 2.0.1 (amd64) but Andy's patch was not reading the groups.

Rather then saying one is flawed, I'm suggesting something might have gotten broken. I haven't done heavy testing due to time constraints, just wanted to give a heads up regarding this.

Hi,
ive made a new auth.inc that works for me on "2.1-BETA0 (i386) built on Sun Sep 2 18:21:50 EDT 2012 " based on some basic changes made already by the Eric and Andy.

What works:
-i can check/authenticate if a user is a member of a group (PermissionGroup in below example).
Settings used:
PeerCertificate:chosen CA cert of the Windows 2008 R2 domain controller.
SearchScope: Entire Subtree.
Base DN: DC=myDomain,DC=local
Containers: CN=PermissionGroup,OU=SubGroup,OU=myOU,DC=myDomain,DC=local
Bind credentials UserDN and Password of a valid AD user.
attributes: samAccountName/cn/memberOf

While type and a little more searching it seams its already possible to authenticate groups?!:
The extended configuration setting seams a little strange "memberOf=CN=GroupName,....", but other than that it works already as described best by the screenshot of 'kestral' in [http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=48961.0]

Im not sure if this would mean this issue can already be closed.?..
Anyway thanks for implementing these changes. Why is it on 90% done.? As it seams to work OK :).

Could you please send it in diff format or submit a Pull Request at github? It's hard to track exactly what changes you did since the file was changed on last months.

Although this patch DOES work for the A.D. side, it BREAKS ldap auth for other ldap backends (namely OSX 10.8 Open Directory, which works fine otherwise).
