I still have an "ldapsrv" patch that works for 4.17 (I can make it available if needed), however it stopped working in 4.18 and someone updated the patch for 4.21, where it got merged. That does not help much for 4.19.5 :-(> > However, the OP seems to be using Samba AD for authentication via ldap, > they may be able to use kerberos instead, but this would entail joining > the domain.There are many more services and applications (e.g. web-applications) that support authentication through LDAP than there are that support Kerberos. That's why I (have to) use LDAP authentication (and authorization) in many places. Even a webserver like Apache can do Kerberos for authentication only, if you want authorization in Apache you still need LDAP as it does not support looking at the groups in the PAC. Another solution is to use an intermediate like Keycloak to provide authn+authz through OIDC. - Kees.> > Rowland > > >
