Adding Users using AD/LDAP
Posted: Sun Oct 25, 2015 8:49 pm
The latest NagiosXI 5 R2.0 AD Authentication is working great.
One cosmetic thing that needs attention is the email notification that is sent out when creating a User account.
I created a user to authenticate using AD and not not allow local login. The email that gets sent out contains the local password still.
If AD/LDAP is enabled, then there needs to be a reference in the email to use their AD credentials (the AD username may not be the same as the Nagios Login Name) and also not show their local password if local login is disabled.
