SSL Support for Ldap

[mdpolasek]

The current release does not support SSL, even though there is a configuration option for this. Is this planned for the next release? Is somebody already working on this?

Hi,

It was in my intention, but I didn't have the time to fully complete. If you want, please create a pull request. From memory, I think almost no code is required to unlock it.

Hi I’m going to create a pull request in the coming 2 weeks. Thanks a lot for your response. Best regards, Martin From: Nordes Ménard-Lamarre <[email protected]> Sent: Dienstag, 5.

I implemented LDAP in our IS3 implementation using Novell.Directory.Ldap. The connection had a property for turning on SSL.

// LdapConnection.SecureSocketLayer.. 
cn.SecureSocketLayer = _config.UseSSL;

Is this what you are thinking? If that is the case, I can take a look and see if your plugin is similar and help out with this. I have a full plate this weekend though but can make time next week-ish.

If I can get some help from you setting up the OpenLDAP container & the same testing you use, this will go much faster.

I can wing it and just send the pull request to you also.

I actually, I poked around your the extension source and found this.

   public LdapService(ExtensionConfig config, ILogger<LdapService<TUser>> logger)
    {
        _logger = logger;
        _config = config.Connections;

        _config.ToList().ForEach(f => _ldapConnections.Add(f.FriendlyName, new LdapConnection
        {
            SecureSocketLayer = f.Ssl
        }));
    }

It looks like you use the same Novell Ldap library. Is SSL not working?

Any news on this? I tried enabling SSL, changed port and it looks like it's working.

I believe it is working. Under the covers it uses the same library I used on an IS3 implementation -- almost the exact code in fact.
