good day... i am working on a project for disaster/incident management, and i am looking for a simple lightweight LDAP solution that doesn't have all the "stuff" that a normal LDAP solution has i already have the LLDAP installed on a Debian 12 VM i am looking at how to configure it so that i can utilize it. ( does that make sense?)

What is working for now, what is not working? What problems are you having?
d
well i can get to the web page, and thats about all i have. i was asking if there was any tips or ticks, wiki on how to configure LLDAP
n
Have you seen the many example configs that we have?
d
i have not i didn't even know that there were any
n
In the readme, there is a list of supported services. Other services will likely work, but we don't have a sample config yet
d
ok let me check that out
ok this is what i am looking at as far as info for the server
URL: User String: Update Interval: Group Prefix: Service Account DN: Group Base RDN:
what i am thinking that's a very light LDAP setup that hopefully LLDAP would be able to use?
as its not too indepth for LLDAP?
n
What are you trying to do? LDAP is a communication protocol, so it's between 2 pieces of software. LLDAP is one end, what other service do you have on the other end? What are you trying to configure? Or are you writing your own code?
d
no i am not trying to write my own code
its a standard ldap connection
n
Between LLDAP and what?
d
a server
n
That you are writing?
d
no its already wrote
n
What software does it run?
d
Team Aweness Kit
Awareness
tak.gov
n
Ok, so you're trying to configure TAK, and you need the values for the configuration above. Have you looked at examples? This seems rather straightforward. Do you have specific questions about a field?
d
thats just it i have looked at the examples but i am not sure which one to use
n
Well, there's no perfect match, no one has an example for tak
d
right
the bottom section
n
Have you tried anything? What values have you tried?
d
is there a config file in LLDAP where those are at?
n
Have you read the LLDAP readme? There's a bit about the configuration file
d
yes i did
n
In the part about docker
d
ok that might have gotten me confused
n
You won't find the exact values that you're looking for, because that's not how it works, but you'll find the DC
The user string should be the same as in the screenshot, but without the ou=tak (and with your own DC)
d
right
n
The service account should be a new user in the lldap_readonly group
So uid=my_user,ou=people,dc=...
And the group base should probably be ou=groups,dc=...
Try with this
d
oh i will do that thank you i am used to all the openldap stuff with slap etc
if this works @nitnelave this will be a game changer
