# Authentication
|
|
|
|
## LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol)
|
|
|
|
Both the LDAP via BindDN and the simple auth LDAP share the following fields:
|
|
|
|
- Authorization Name **(required)**
|
|
- A name to assign to the new method of authorization.
|
|
|
|
- Host **(required)**
|
|
- The address where the LDAP server can be reached.
|
|
- Example: `mydomain.com`
|
|
|
|
- Port **(required)**
|
|
- The port to use when connecting to the server.
|
|
- Example: `389` for LDAP or `636` for LDAP SSL
|
|
|
|
- Enable TLS Encryption (optional)
|
|
- Whether to use TLS when connecting to the LDAP server.
|
|
|
|
- Admin Filter (optional)
|
|
- An LDAP filter specifying if a user should be given administrator
|
|
privileges. If a user account passes the filter, the user will be
|
|
privileged as an administrator.
|
|
- Example: `(objectClass=adminAccount)`
|
|
- Example for Microsoft Active Directory (AD): `(memberOf=CN=admin-group,OU=example,DC=example,DC=org)`
|
|
|
|
- Username attribute (optional)
|
|
- The attribute of the user's LDAP record containing the user name. Given
|
|
attribute value will be used for new Gitea account user name after first
|
|
successful sign-in. Leave empty to use login name given on sign-in form.
|
|
- This is useful when supplied login name is matched against multiple
|
|
attributes, but only single specific attribute should be used for Gitea
|
|
account name, see "User Filter".
|
|
- Example: `uid`
|
|
- Example for Microsoft Active Directory (AD): `sAMAccountName`
|
|
|
|
- First name attribute (optional)
|
|
- The attribute of the user's LDAP record containing the user's first name.
|
|
This will be used to populate their account information.
|
|
- Example: `givenName`
|
|
|
|
- Surname attribute (optional)
|
|
- The attribute of the user's LDAP record containing the user's surname.
|
|
This will be used to populate their account information.
|
|
- Example: `sn`
|
|
|
|
- E-mail attribute **(required)**
|
|
- The attribute of the user's LDAP record containing the user's email
|
|
address. This will be used to populate their account information.
|
|
- Example: `mail`
|
|
|
|
**LDAP via BindDN** adds the following fields:
|
|
|
|
- Bind DN (optional)
|
|
- The DN to bind to the LDAP server with when searching for the user. This
|
|
may be left blank to perform an anonymous search.
|
|
- Example: `cn=Search,dc=mydomain,dc=com`
|
|
|
|
- Bind Password (optional)
|
|
- The password for the Bind DN specified above, if any. _Note: The password
|
|
is stored in plaintext at the server. As such, ensure that the Bind DN
|
|
has as few privileges as possible._
|
|
|
|
- User Search Base **(required)**
|
|
- The LDAP base at which user accounts will be searched for.
|
|
- Example: `ou=Users,dc=mydomain,dc=com`
|
|
|
|
- User Filter **(required)**
|
|
- An LDAP filter declaring how to find the user record that is attempting to
|
|
authenticate. The `%s` matching parameter will be substituted with login
|
|
name given on sign-in form.
|
|
- Example: `(&(objectClass=posixAccount)(uid=%s))`
|
|
- Example for Microsoft Active Directory (AD): `(&(objectCategory=Person)(memberOf=CN=user-group,OU=example,DC=example,DC=org)(sAMAccountName=%s)(!(UserAccountControl:1.2.840.113556.1.4.803:=2)))`
|
|
- To substitute more than once, `%[1]s` should be used instead, e.g. when
|
|
matching supplied login name against multiple attributes such as user
|
|
identifier, email or even phone number.
|
|
- Example: `(&(objectClass=Person)(|(uid=%[1]s)(mail=%[1]s)(mobile=%[1]s)))`
|
|
- Enable user synchronization
|
|
- This option enables a periodic task that synchronizes the Gitea users with
|
|
the LDAP server. The default period is every 24 hours but that can be
|
|
changed in the app.ini file. See the *cron.sync_external_users* section in
|
|
the [sample
|
|
app.ini](https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/blob/master/custom/conf/app.ini.sample)
|
|
for detailed comments about that section. The *User Search Base* and *User
|
|
Filter* settings described above will limit which users can use Gitea and
|
|
which users will be synchronized. When initially run the task will create
|
|
all LDAP users that match the given settings so take care if working with
|
|
large Enterprise LDAP directories.
|
|
|
|
**LDAP using simple auth** adds the following fields:
|
|
|
|
- User DN **(required)**
|
|
- A template to use as the user's DN. The `%s` matching parameter will be
|
|
substituted with login name given on sign-in form.
|
|
- Example: `cn=%s,ou=Users,dc=mydomain,dc=com`
|
|
- Example: `uid=%s,ou=Users,dc=mydomain,dc=com`
|
|
|
|
- User Search Base (optional)
|
|
- The LDAP base at which user accounts will be searched for.
|
|
- Example: `ou=Users,dc=mydomain,dc=com`
|
|
|
|
- User Filter **(required)**
|
|
- An LDAP filter declaring when a user should be allowed to log in. The `%s`
|
|
matching parameter will be substituted with login name given on sign-in
|
|
form.
|
|
- Example: `(&(objectClass=posixAccount)(cn=%s))`
|
|
- Example: `(&(objectClass=posixAccount)(uid=%s))`
|
|
|
|
**Verify group membership in LDAP** uses the following fields:
|
|
|
|
* Group Search Base (optional)
|
|
* The LDAP DN used for groups.
|
|
* Example: `ou=group,dc=mydomain,dc=com`
|
|
|
|
* Group Name Filter (optional)
|
|
* An LDAP filter declaring how to find valid groups in the above DN.
|
|
* Example: `(|(cn=gitea_users)(cn=admins))`
|
|
|
|
* User Attribute in Group (optional)
|
|
* Which user LDAP attribute is listed in the group.
|
|
* Example: `uid`
|
|
|
|
* Group Attribute for User (optional)
|
|
* Which group LDAP attribute contains an array above user attribute names.
|
|
* Example: `memberUid`
|
|
|
|
## PAM (Pluggable Authentication Module)
|
|
|
|
To configure PAM, set the 'PAM Service Name' to a filename in `/etc/pam.d/`. To
|
|
work with normal Linux passwords, the user running Gitea must have read access
|
|
to `/etc/shadow`.
|
|
|
|
## SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol)
|
|
|
|
This option allows Gitea to log in to an SMTP host as a Gitea user. To
|
|
configure this, set the fields below:
|
|
|
|
- Authentication Name **(required)**
|
|
- A name to assign to the new method of authorization.
|
|
|
|
- SMTP Authentication Type **(required)**
|
|
- Type of authentication to use to connect to SMTP host, PLAIN or LOGIN.
|
|
|
|
- Host **(required)**
|
|
- The address where the SMTP host can be reached.
|
|
- Example: `smtp.mydomain.com`
|
|
|
|
- Port **(required)**
|
|
- The port to use when connecting to the server.
|
|
- Example: `587`
|
|
|
|
- Allowed Domains
|
|
- Restrict what domains can log in if using a public SMTP host or SMTP host
|
|
with multiple domains.
|
|
- Example: `gitea.io,mydomain.com,mydomain2.com`
|
|
|
|
- Enable TLS Encryption
|
|
- Enable TLS encryption on authentication.
|
|
|
|
- Skip TLS Verify
|
|
- Disable TLS verify on authentication.
|
|
|
|
- This authentication is activate
|
|
- Enable or disable this auth.
|
|
|
|
## FreeIPA
|
|
|
|
- In order to log in to Gitea using FreeIPA credentials, a bind account needs to
|
|
be created for Gitea:
|
|
|
|
- On the FreeIPA server, create a `gitea.ldif` file, replacing `dc=example,dc=com`
|
|
with your DN, and provide an appropriately secure password:
|
|
```
|
|
dn: uid=gitea,cn=sysaccounts,cn=etc,dc=example,dc=com
|
|
changetype: add
|
|
objectclass: account
|
|
objectclass: simplesecurityobject
|
|
uid: gitea
|
|
userPassword: secure password
|
|
passwordExpirationTime: 20380119031407Z
|
|
nsIdleTimeout: 0
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- Import the LDIF (change localhost to an IPA server if needed). A prompt for
|
|
Directory Manager password will be presented:
|
|
```
|
|
ldapmodify -h localhost -p 389 -x -D \
|
|
"cn=Directory Manager" -W -f gitea.ldif
|
|
```
|
|
- Add an IPA group for gitea\_users :
|
|
```
|
|
ipa group-add --desc="Gitea Users" gitea_users
|
|
```
|
|
- Note: For errors about IPA credentials, run `kinit admin` and provide the
|
|
domain admin account password.
|
|
|
|
- Log in to Gitea as an Administrator and click on "Authentication" under Admin Panel.
|
|
Then click `Add New Source` and fill in the details, changing all where appropriate.
