OPENLDAP as a proxy of other ldap












0














I don't know if it's possible or not.
In our compagny we have a main ldap who contain all employees.
I wanted to custom it but it's no possible.



So the idea is to create an new ldap based on Openldap.



Is an openldap can act as a proxy for the main ldap for users
(user/password are stored in the main ldap compagny) and group would be defined inside it. Groups will contain users from the main ldap.
Do you think it's possible and how ?

          There are a number of ways to accomplish this, but configuring the OpenLDAP server as a translucent proxy and overriding/adding attributes from the other LDAP server seems like the most straight-forward approach.
