LL::NG can delegate authentication to Apache, so it is possible to use any Apache authentication module, for example Kerberos, Radius, OTP, etc.
REMOTE_USER
environment variable, which will be used by LL::NG to get authenticated user.
In General Parameters > Authentication modules, choose Apache
as authentication backend.
You may want to failback to another authentication backend in case of the Apache authentication fails. Use then the Multiple authentication module, for example:
Apache;LDAP
The Apache configuration depends on the module you choose, you need to look at the module documentation, for example:
The Kerberos configuration is quite complex. You can find some configuration tips on this page.
When using IDP modules (like CAS or SAML), the activation of Apache authentication can alter the operation. This is because the client often need to request directly the IDP, and the Apache authentication will block the request.
In this case, you can add in the Apache authentication module:
Satisfy any Order allow,deny allow from APPLICATIONS_IP
This will bypass the authentication module for request from APPLICATIONS_IP.
