Overview

Open-AudIT can use Active Directory and/or OpenLDAP for user authentication and authorisation. Open-AudIT will query both types of LDAP servers to validate a user's username and password, then retrieve user details and the list of roles the user has and the orgs a user has access to. Open-AudIT will automatically create the user if they are authenticated and authorized so no manual user setup within Open-AudIT is required - at all!

How To

To enable this, create a new LDAP Server item by going to menu -> Manage -> LDAP Servers -> Create LDAP Servers.

...

The default Open-AudIT groups for LDAP Server authorization are:
