mod_ldap_userdir 1.1.10

mod_ldap_userdir is a module that enables the Apache web server to look up user home directories (for /~user URLs) from an LDAP directory.
Installation Instructions:
gzip -dc mod_ldap_userdir-1.1.9.tar.gz | tar xf -
cd mod_ldap_userdir-1.1.9
./configure --with-activate
make
make install
If your LDAP server runs OpenLDAP 1.x, you need to add the posixAccount schema definition. Add the contents of posixAccount-objectclass to your slapd.oc.conf and restart your LDAP server. OpenLDAP 2.x (and most other LDAP servers) ship with this schema predefined.
The user-ldif file contains a sample user ldif. Modify it to your liking and say ldapadd -D your-root-dn -w your-root-dn-password < ldif
You are strongly encouraged to read up on the LDAP config-file directives in the DIRECTIVES file, included with the distribution. At minimum, youll need to have LDAPUserDir, LDAPUserDirDNInfo, and LDAPUserDirBaseDN configuration directives in your httpd.conf.
A set of basic mod_ldap_userdir configuration directives would look like:
LDAPUserDir public_html
LDAPUserDirDNInfo cn=your-dn,dc=example,dc=com dnpass
LDAPUserDirBaseDN ou=People,dc=example,dc=com
Of course, you will need to update these configuration directives with the proper values for your environment.
Enhancements:
- Apache 2.2 support, refined LDAP over TLS support, Sun/Solaris LDAP SDK support, and better sanity checking of the timeout value.
