I did this on SLES 10 as a demonstration for a conference presentation.
In SLES 10:
In /etc/sysconfig/apache2 add:
ldap authnz_ldap
to APACHE_MODULES=
In the Apache configuration (hobbit-apache.conf):
ScriptAlias /hobbit-seccgi/ "/home/hobbit/cgi-secure/"
Directory "/home/hobbit/cgi-secure">
AllowOverride None
Options ExecCGI Includes
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Hobbit Administration"
AuthBasicProvider ldap
AuthzLDAPAuthoritative off
AuthLDAPBindDN cn=LDAPSRV,o=VMAssist,c=US
AuthLDAPBindPassword ********
AuthLDAPURL ldap://192.168.1.60/o=VMAssist,c=US?uid?sub NONE
Require valid-user
</Directory>
restart Apache.
This process worked for me with the LDAP Server on z/VM (which is IBM
Tivoli Directory Server), but should be similar if not the same for
OpenLDAP, and others. Other distros may have a different way to add
modules to Apache.
Standard disclaimers apply....
