**Step #5 - (Optional: Setup "LDAP" user authentication for users in Windows Active Directory)**
Authenticate your users (Technicians) via LDAP! – Simplifies user password management
# Log into the Cacti web interface as the admin user http://YourServerNameOrIP/cacti # Click on "User Management" under the "Console" tab in the "Utilities" section # Click "Add" in the upper right corner of the page to add a new Cacti user # Create a typical "Technician" level access account with "View Only" rights that LDAP will use as a template during first logon of LDAP users # Make sure you come back in and turn ON the ability for this "Technician Template" user to view graphs! # Set all graphs to "Allow" and click "save" # You should now see that our "Technician Template" we will use for LDAP authentication is set for "ALLOW" # Now just to be sure everything is set correctly, log in to Cacti as the "Technician" user and verify that this template user works correctly Close all web browsers you may have open. http://YourServerNameOrIP/cacti Log in as user: Technician (with that long password you set earlier) # When you are satisfied with your "Technician Template" user for LDAP authentication it is time to turn on LDAP Authentication as an option! # Close all web browsers you may have open and login to Cacti as the local "admin" user http://YourServerNameOrIP/cacti Log in as user: admin # Configure LDAP settings # Note: <username> is a variable, you need to keep <username> and just edit the "@domain" part # More examples of the LDAP syntax can be found here: http://forums.cacti.net/viewtopic.php?t=11595 # LDAP Server - Enter the DNS name of your LDAP Server # LDAP DN - canonical name (cn) will be templated with the <username> given in the logon screen. # Together with the password of the logon screen, cacti will perform an LDAP Bind request. If this succeeds, cacti will assume authentication success. # ou= enter your LDAP-ou here # o = enter your LDAP-o here # c = enter your LDAP c here # LDAP Cacti Template User - Enter the name of an already existing cacti user here. The settings of this user will be copied to a user who logs on for the first time. # After you setup LDAP and clicked "save" you should close any web browsers you may have open and try logging in as a domain user via LDAP!
