LDAP Authentication

The LDAP WebYaST module allows you to enable authentication via LDAP. Once configured, LDAP users are available in roles management and LDAP users are able to log in WebYaST.

You can find more information about LDAP in SUSE Security Guide.

To enable LDAP authentication, follow these steps:

  1. Check the Enable LDAP Authentication option.

  2. Set the LDAP Server Address and Base DN as provided by your administrator. It is possible to acquire the Base DN from the server with the Fetch DN button.

  3. Check Secure Connection if a secure connection should be used.

  4. Click Save

  5. If you are using LDAP together with Kerberos, use the Kerberos WebYaST module to configure Kerberos.
