Configuring LDAP

TrueNAS has an Open LDAP client for accessing the information on an LDAP server. An LDAP server provides directory services for finding network resources like users and their associated permissions.

You can have either Active Directory, LDAP, or IPA configured on TrueNAS but not multiple directory services simultaneously.
Does LDAP work with SMB? LDAP authentication for SMB shares is disabled unless you configured and populated the LDAP directory with Samba attributes. The most popular script for performing this task is smbldap-tools. TrueNAS needs to be able to validate the full certificate chain (no self-signed certificates). TrueNAS does not support non-CA certificates.

Directory Services Screens

The Directory Services screen and widgets provide access to TrueNAS settings to set up access to directory services and advanced authentication systems deployed in user environments.

TrueNAS does not configure Active Directory domain controllers or LDAP directory servers, nor does it configure Kerberos authentication servers or ID mapping systems.

Refer to documentation for these services and systems for information on how to configure each to suit your use case.
