pbertera/ldapserver repository overview

⁠Slapd + PhpLdapAdmin

This container is inspired by https://github.com/nickstenning/docker-slapd⁠

A basic configuration of the OpenLDAP server and PhpLdapAdmin interface, slapd, with support for data volumes.

This image will initialize a basic configuration of slapd. Most common schemas are preloaded (all the schemas that come preloaded with the default Ubuntu Precise install of slapd), but the only record added to the directory will be the root organisational unit.

You can (and should) configure the following by providing environment variables to docker run:

• LDAP_DOMAIN sets the LDAP root domain. (e.g. if you provide foo.bar.com here, the root of your directory will be dc=foo,dc=bar,dc=com)
• LDAP_ORGANISATION sets the human-readable name for your organisation (e.g. Acme Widgets Inc.)
• LDAP_ROOTPASS sets the LDAP admin user password (i.e. the password for cn=admin,dc=example,dc=com if your domain was example.com)

For example, to start a container running slapd for the mycorp.com domain, with data stored in /data/ldap on the host, use the following:

docker run -v /data/ldap:/var/lib/ldap \
           -p 80:80 -p 389:389
           -e LDAP_DOMAIN=mycorp.com \
           -e LDAP_ORGANISATION="My Mega Corporation" \
           -e LDAP_ROOTPASS=s3cr3tpassw0rd \
           -d pbertera/lapdserver

You could then load an LDIF file (to set up your directory) like so:

ldapadd -h localhost -p <host_port> -c -x -D cn=admin,dc=mycorp,dc=com -W -f data.ldif

Oterwise you can connect to the PhpLdapAdmin on the web port and import the LDIF
