we are implementing the LDAP authentication and we are able to connect with LDAP and able to
authenticate the user with that. However we have 2 type of users, one - corporate users and
available of Active Directory and second application user, which is used by different
application to connect with database.
Below entry i did in the pg_hba.conf file, if i create user in DB (similar exist on AD) it works.
However if i create one user with password, it calls the LDAP server for authentication
and fails as it does not exists in AD.
host all all 0.0.0.0/0 ldap ldapserver=<LDAL Server> ldapbasedn="OU=Corporate,DC=etch,dc=com" ldapbinddn="CN=AdSyncAcct,OU=Service Accounts,DC=etch,DC=com"
ldapbindpasswd="Password" ldapsearchattribute="sAMAccountName"
we are using the postgres 10.10 version.
can you please suggest the pg_hba.conf file entry, that will help us to authenticate the users
from LDAP and from postgres as well.
Create a NOLOGIN role "ldapusers" in PostgreSQL and assign the users to authenticate
with LDAP to that group.
host all +ldapusers 0.0.0.0/0 ldap ...
and the others will "fall through" to the password authentication.
