#1982 [RFE] ldap_access_filter with variable expansion
Closed: wontfix 4 years ago by pbrezina. Opened 10 years ago by joke.

Expand certain variables within the "ldap_access_filter" directive to build more expressive pam access rules.

nss-pam-ldapd [1] expands the variables like "$hostname" and "$service" within the access filter "pam_authz_search".

This way access can be granted based on:

  • checking group membership like "memberOf=cn=${service},ou=services,..." rather than using the authorizedService attribute.

  • many more complex access checks using the ldap search syntax.

This request refers to [2].
