Hello, We have a LDAP database with many users information and this is the one we use to implement most of our services; on the contrary we have SER working with a SQL data base. Our intention was to make also the authentication against LDAP. After some research, we've seen there's no specific module for SER to work with LDAP and we have considered some alternatives among them there was the "module" from ETH world <http://www.ethworld.ethz.ch/technologies/sipeth/ser_modules/ldap>. However, we didn't manage to make it work (if it's an advisable choice we'd appreciate some clues).

So, we decided to make the authentication through the RADIUS server. Nevertheless, we are having some problems with the way data is sent. When doing the user authentication there's no problem as it is sent in plain text and we modified to do it against the email attribute as it's this what we want. It makes it perfectly. But it turns out that when we try to make the password authentication, as the data sent from SER comes in a hash (user:realm:password) as long as we know, we don't really know how to make it compare with the password field in LDAP (under MD5 algorithm as well). When we make a test over Radius by sending plain text it works perfectly so it shouldn't be a problem by searching the attributes over LDAP. We have tried to follow instructions to set the digest section properly but there's something we definitely miss. Attached there's a log from the radius when trying to log with SER and the Register section from SER. log: 03 User-Name = &quot;my.user(a)i2cat.net <mailto:my.user@i2cat.net>" Digest-Attributes = 0x0a0b7061626c6f2e726f73 Digest-Attributes = 0x010b69326361742e6e6574 Digest-Attributes = 0x022a34626466643065343837303734363630626261366134363437663730313034343639663532306532 Digest-Attributes = 0x040f7369703a69326361742e6e6574 Digest-Attributes = 0x030a5245474953544552 Digest-Response = "6c95bcba1fca30e976fa9295025b1bf4" Service-Type = Sip-Session Sip-Uri-User = "my.user" NAS-Port = 5060 NAS-IP-Address = 127.0.0.1 +- entering group authorize ++[preprocess] returns ok ++[chap] returns noop ++[mschap] returns noop rlm_digest: Adding Auth-Type = DIGEST ++[digest] returns ok rlm_realm: Looking up realm "i2cat.net <http://i2cat.net>" for User-Name = &quot;my.user(a)i2cat.net <mailto:my.user@i2cat.net>" rlm_realm: No such realm "i2cat.net <http://i2cat.net>" ++[suffix] returns noop rlm_eap: No EAP-Message, not doing EAP ++[eap] returns noop ++[unix] returns notfound ++[files] returns noop rlm_ldap: - authorize rlm_ldap: performing user authorization for my.user(a)i2cat.net <mailto:my.user@i2cat.net> WARNING: Deprecated conditional expansion ":-".
