Info
MemSQL Helios does not support this command.
Sync LDAP users and groups.
Usage
Sync LDAP users and groups.
The command 'sdb-admin sync-ldap' syncs LDAP users and groups. LDAP is not modified in any way.
This command may be run by either:
- Specifying the required flags on the command line (--groups, --uris, --schema, --auth-method, --search-base...) or by
- Providing a configuration file with the --config-file flag
Below is example of syncing users and groups from Active Directory (AD) using flags on the command line:
sdb-admin sync-ldap
--uris ldap://52.59.219.12
--groups Medical
--search-base dc=memsql,dc=ldap,dc=testing
--auth-method kerberos
--schema active-directory
--bind-user "CN=Some User,CN=Users,DC=memsql,DC=ldap,DC=testing"
--bind-credentials password
--exclude-ldap-users jsmith
The following YAML-based configuration file is equivalent to the example above.
drop_unmanaged_memsql_users: false
groups:
- Medical
exclude_users:
- jsmith
schema: active-directory
show_detail: false
ldap_client:
uris:
- ldap://52.59.219.12
start_tls: false
ca_paths: []
bind:
user: CN=Some User,CN=Users,DC=memsql,DC=ldap,DC=testing
credentials: password
search:
base: dc=memsql,dc=ldap,dc=testing
filter: (&(objectClass=*))
detail:
user_object_class: user
group_object_class: group
user_attribute: sAMAccountName
group_attribute: sAMAccountName
user_member_of_attribute: memberOf
group_members_attribute: member
user_principal_name_attribute: userPrincipalName
sql_user:
resource_pool: ""
failed_login_attempts_limit: 0
password_lock_time: 0
auth_method: kerberos
pam_auth_service: ""
kerberos_realm: ""
sql_client:
user: root
password: null
Note that there are a number of additional fields that may be specified in the config file, such as 'ca_paths' and the 'detail' struct.
For custom LDAP implementations, use either the 'detail' struct in the config file or the appropriate flags on the command line. The 'detail' struct describes the structure of an LDAP entry. Either the 'schema' field or the --schema flag can be used to define the required details. Note that these details can also be overridden.
For example, given an LDAP user entry:
# adam, example.org
dn: uid=adam,dc=example,dc=org
objectClass: posixAccount
uid: adam
...and an LDAP group entry:
# dbagrp, example.org
dn: cn=dbagrp,dc=example,dc=org
objectClass: posixGroup
cn: dbagrp
memberUid: user
...a detail configuration will resemble:
ldap_client:
search:
detail:
user_object_class: posixAccount
group_object_class: posixGroup
user_attribute: uid
group_attribute: cn
user_member_of_attribute: ""
group_members_attribute: memberUid
user_principal_name_attribute: ""
Currently supported schemas include unspecified, active-directory, open-ldap. You should only override the 'detail' struct if the required schema is unsupported.
All users created with this command are members of the group 'ldap_users_internal_group'. Note that this group must not be modified.
LDAP bind credentials may be indicated using the 'LDAP_BIND_CREDENTIALS' environment variable.
