LDAP
3 minute read.
Last Modified 2021-03-25 18:09 EDTTrueNAS includes an Open LDAP client for accessing information from an LDAP server. An LDAP server provides directory services for finding network resources such as users and their associated permissions.
To integrate an LDAP server with TrueNAS, go to Directory Services > LDAP.
Enter any LDAP server hostnames or IP addresses. Separate entries with an empty space. Entering multiple hostnames or IP addresses creates an LDAP failover priority list.
Enter the Base DN.
This is the top level of the LDAP directory tree to be used when searching for resources.
For example, dc=test,dc=org
.
Enter the Bind DN.
This is the administrative account name on the LDAP server.
For example, cn=Manager,dc=test,dc=org
.
Next, enter the Bind Password. This is the password associated with the Bind DN account.
The final basic option is Enable. Unsetting Enable disables the LDAP configuration without deleting it. It can be enabled at a later time without reconfiguring the options.
