=head1 NAME

C4::Auth - Authenticates Koha users

=head1 SYNOPSIS

  use C4::Auth_with_ldap;

=head1 LDAP Configuration

    This module is specific to LDAP authentification. It requires Net::LDAP package and one or more
	working LDAP servers.
	To use it :
	   * Modify ldapserver element in KOHA_CONF
	   * Establish field mapping in <mapping> element.

	For example, if your user records are stored according to the inetOrgPerson schema, RFC#2798,
	the username would match the "uid" field, and the password should match the "userpassword" field.

	Make sure that ALL required fields are populated by your LDAP database (and mapped in KOHA_CONF).  
	What are the required fields?  Well, in mysql you can check the database table "borrowers" like this:

	mysql> show COLUMNS from borrowers;

    <mapping>                  <!-- match koha SQL field names to your LDAP record field names -->
      <firstname    is="givenname"      ></firstname>
      <surname      is="sn"             ></surname>
      <address      is="postaladdress"  ></address>
      <city         is="l"              >Athens, OH</city>
      <zipcode      is="postalcode"     ></zipcode>
      <branchcode   is="branch"         >MAIN</branchcode>
      <userid       is="uid"            ></userid>
      <password     is="userpassword"   ></password>
      <email        is="mail"           ></email>
      <categorycode is="employeetype"   >PT</categorycode>
      <phone        is="telephonenumber"></phone>
    </mapping> 
  </ldapserver> 
 </config>

The <mapping> subelements establish the relationship between mysql fields and LDAP attributes. The element name
is the column in mysql, with the "is" characteristic set to the LDAP attribute name.  Optionally, any content
between the element tags is taken as the default value.  In this example, the default categorycode is "PT" (for
patron).  

=head1 CONFIGURATION

Once a user has been accepted by the LDAP server, there are several possibilities for how Koha will behave, depending on 
your configuration and the presence of a matching Koha user in your local DB:

                         LOCAL_USER
 OPTION UPDATE REPLICATE  EXISTS?  RESULT
   A1      1       1        1      OK : We're updating them anyway.
   A2      1       1        0      OK : We're adding them anyway.
   B1      1       0        1      OK : We update them.
   B2      1       0        0     FAIL: We cannot add new user.
   C1      0       1        1      OK : We do nothing.  (maybe should update password?)
   C2      0       1        0      OK : We add the new user.
   D1      0       0        1      OK : We do nothing.  (maybe should update password?)
   D2      0       0        0     FAIL: We cannot add new user.

Note: failure here just means that Koha will fallback to checking the local DB.  That is, a given user could login with
their LDAP password OR their local one.  If this is a problem, then you should enable update and supply a mapping for 
password.  Then the local value will be updated at successful LDAP login and the passwords will be synced.

If you choose NOT to update local users, the borrowers table will not be affected at all.
Note that this means that patron passwords may appear to change if LDAP is ever disabled, because
the local table never contained the LDAP values.  

=head2 auth_by_bind

Binds as the user instead of retrieving their record.  Recommended if update disabled.

=head2 principal_name

Provides an optional sprintf-style format for manipulating the userid before the bind.
Even though the userPrincipalName is one intended target, any uniquely identifying
attribute that the server allows to be used for binding could be used.

Currently, principal_name only operates when auth_by_bind is enabled.

=head2 update_password

If this tag is left out or set to a true value, then the user's LDAP password
will be stored (hashed) in the local Koha database. If you don't want this
to happen, then set the value of this to '0'. Note that if passwords are not
stored locally, and the connection to the LDAP system fails, then the users
will not be able to log in at all.

=head2 Active Directory 

The auth_by_bind and principal_name settings are recommended for Active Directory.

Under default Active Directory rules, we cannot determine the distinguishedName attribute from the Koha userid as reliably as
we would typically under openldap.  Instead of:

    distinguishedName: CN=barnes.7,DC=my_company,DC=com

We might get:

    distinguishedName: CN=Barnes\, Jim,OU=Test Accounts,OU=User Accounts,DC=my_company,DC=com

Matching that would require us to know more info about the account (firstname, surname) and to include punctuation and whitespace
in Koha userids.  But the userPrincipalName should be consistent, something like:

    userPrincipalName: barnes.7@my_company.com

Therefore it is often easier to bind to Active Directory with userPrincipalName, effectively the
canonical email address for that user, or what it would be if email were enabled for them.  If Koha userid values 
will match the username portion of the userPrincipalName, and the domain suffix is the same for all users, then use principal_name
like this:
    <principal_name>%s@core.my_company.com</principal_name>

The user of the previous example, barnes.7, would then attempt to bind as:
    barnes.7@core.my_company.com
