DAS configure user authentication with LDAP on CDP7

felix_ — Wed, 26 Jul 2023 09:57:52 GMT

How to configure user authentication using LDAP with DAS service, I refer to https://docs.cloudera.com/cdp-private-cloud-base/7.1.7/using-das/topics/das-user-authentication-ldap.html, but it doesn't work.

Could you share some examples? I want to confirm which configs are necessary.

And How to debug this? Data Analytics Studio Webapp Server log doesn't have any useful info.

Hi @felix_

We will recommend you to use HUE Query Processor which provide same functionality as that of DAS.

However if you want to keep using DAS, below information may help you:

The LDAP implementations tested by Cloudera are the ones in the below documentation (MS Active Directory, OpenLDAP, or OpenDJ)

https://docs.cloudera.com/cdp-private-cloud-base/7.1.6/using-das/topics/das-user-authentication-ldap.html

You may use below LDAP Search command to check if the configuration used are correct or not

Example, Searching for a specific users (peter):
-------------------------------------------------------------
ldapsearch -x -H ldap://sme-2012-ad.support.com:389 -D "test1@SUPPORT.COM" -w hadoop12345! -b "ou=users,OU=hortonworks,dc=support, dc=com" "(&(objectclass=user)(cn=peter))"
