Setting up LDAP for Rundeck on Tomcat

[Sridhar Srigiriraju]

Greg / all,

I have been going over the documents
http://rundeck.org/1.3.2/RunDeck-Guide.html#active-directory and looked at the discussions but couldnt find anything related to setting up of LDAP access for Rundeck through Tomcat.

All the instructions I see are catered to how ldap is setup using out-of-the-box Jetty server.
I would really appreciate if you can give me some pointers/docs on how to proceed with setting up LDAP  access on Rundeck which is deployed on Tomcat.

Thanks
Sridhar

I am also on edge of my seat for knowing how to do this :)

Hi All,

I was wondering if anybody on this forum has deployed rundeck on tomcat and integrated with LDAP?

Thanks

Hi Sridhar,

You should be able to use the Tomcat JNDIRealm configuration
(http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/realm-howto.html#JNDIRealm)
to define the authentication Realm for the tomcat server in the
conf/server.xml file.

I believe that Rundeck's web.xml also currently requires that each
authenticated user belong to a role named "user". This is hardcoded
in the web.xml for the rundeck.war, but you can modify the web.xml if
you need to change the default role requirement (look for the
<security-role>).
