OpenLDAP as Proxy



Hi there,

 

We need to find out if OpenLDAP will allow us to use it as a proxy so it can retrieve users from three different Windows Active Directory Domains?  These three domains do not have any similar users.  The user retrieval process needs to work like this:

 

-          The application that needs this LDAP connection will point to the OpenLDAP server using an LDAP address such as ldap://server.example.com:389/OU=users…etc

-          This application will also need to retrieve the sAMAccountName from each user retrieved via the OpenLDAP server

-          The application’s LDAP connection settings also need to specify an Administrator’s DN and password, but I’m confused about this because I don’t know what Administrator account to use.  Like I said, each domain has their own set of users so they don’t have any Administrator accounts in common.  How would this work? 

 

If you need any more information, please let me know!!

 

Thanks,

- Christian
