Authorizing NFS export users via LDAP

This feature is experimental and not intended for use in production environments.

By configuring access to a user directory via LDAP, you can control which users can access which NFS exports.

Prerequisites

To configure access to an LDAP server

  1. Go to the Storage services > NFS > Settings tab, and then click LDAP.
  2. Turn on the toggle switch LDAP authorization, and then specify the following information:

    • In Address, specify the IP address of the LDAP server.
    • In Base DN, specify the distinguished name of the search starting point.
    • In Bind DN and Bind password, specify the credentials of an LDAP authentication database user.

  3. Click Save to enable access to the LDAP server.
