# [Ldap-auth](https://github.com/nginxinc/nginx-ldap-auth) software is for # authenticating users who request protected resources from servers proxied by # nginx. It includes a daemon (ldap-auth) that communicates with an # authentication server, and a webserver daemon that generates an authentication # cookie based on the user’s credentials. The daemons are written in Python for # use with a Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) authentication server # (OpenLDAP or Microsoft Windows Active Directory 2003 and 2012). --- version: "2.1" services: ldap-auth: image: ghcr.io/linuxserver/ldap-auth container_name: ldap-auth environment: # Optionally define a custom fernet key, has to be base64-encoded 32-byte (only needed if container is frequently recreated, or if using multi-node setups, invalidating previous authentications) - FERNETKEY= # optional # Point this to a certificate file to enable HTTP over SSL (HTTPS) for the ldap auth daemon - CERTFILE= # optional # Point this to the private key file, matching the certificate file referred to in CERTFILE - KEYFILE= # optional ports: # the port for ldap auth daemon - 8888:8888 # the port for ldap login page - 9000:9000 restart: unless-stopped
