           Summary: Need httpd to authenticate with Active Directory domain
                    credentials
           Product: Apache httpd-2
           Version: 2.0.59
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: minor
          Priority: P5
         Component: mod_auth_ldap
        AssignedTo: bugs@httpd.apache.org
        ReportedBy: peter.newman@cdu.edu.au


Active Directory allows for authentication to be done by "binding" to the AD
(LDAP) service with a user's domain account and password directly.  A successful
connection indicates that the user is authenticated.

So instead of using a DN:... you use account pnewman@domain.local and supply the
user password as the bind password.

I am forced to do this due to our directory being stuffed so filtering by uid
creates a large load (I don't have access to a real bind dn and bind passwd).

I have written a patch to be supplied shortly...

Created an attachment (id=19822)
 --> (http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=19822&action=view)
adds Active Directory authentication_by_bind method to module


this was tested by adding to the RHEL4 src rpm: httpd-2.0.52-28.ent as
Patch131: httpd-2.0.54-modauthldap_adauthbybind.patch
and rebuilding the RPM

testing was only for non ssl and no modauthldap authorisation directives were
tested (but should not be affected)

I have checked that this can also be patched against the 2.0 HEAD

Created an attachment (id=19928)
 --> (http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=19928&action=view)
patch against attachment 19822 to close ldap connections

At least on httpd-2.0.52-22.ent.centos4 you need to make the following change
to avoid leaking open ldap connections (and possibly causing account lockdown
etc.)
