Re: [Observium] LDAP auth to MS AD with TLS Self Signed Cert

Adam, I finally got this working. I have written up a quick guide to making this work, would it be possible for you to put this in your documentation page for LDAP Authentication? I am sure I will loose it if it is not somewhere obvious Directions for enabling LDAP with TLS when connecting to an LDAP server with a self signed certificate or a CA that the Observium server does not recognize Assumptions: you have already enabled SSL/TLS for ldap on your Microsoft Domain Controller (or other LDAP server) Observium is installed on a Fedora flavor of Linux version 7 or 8 (this might work with Ubuntu but i am not sure the commands are the same) Observium is configured for LDAP AND TLS per the authentication documentation page On the Observium server: yum install php-ldap vim /etc/openldap/ldap.conf make sure these 2 config options are commented out #TLS_CACERTDIR /etc/openldap/certs #TLS_CACERT /etc/openldap/certs/cert.crt Add/Change this config option to either hard or allow TLS_REQCERT hard “hard” means that the LDAP server MUST present a cert and the cert must be trustworthy OR in the trusted cert store (this is the more secure method) “allow” mean that the LDAP server MUST present a cert and the cert can be anything...valid or invalid setting to “hard” is better because it prevents an imposter from stealing the ip address of the LDAP server and intercepting the messages from Observium If you are setting TLS_REQCERT to “hard” then take these additional steps: export the LDAP server cert in b64 format with NO KEY place cert of LDAP server in ‘/etc/pki/ca-trust/source/anchors’ folder run ‘update-ca-trust’ as root Tony From: Adam Armstrong via observium<mailto:observium@observium.org> Sent: Wednesday, February 16, 2022 7:29 PM To: 'Observium'<mailto:observium@observium.org> Cc: Adam Armstrong<mailto:adama@observium.org> Subject: Re: [Observium] LDAP auth to MS AD with TLS Self Signed Cert I’ve never used LDAP, so I’m not really sure how this should be done. You can put the putenv stuff in config.php. So long as the variable is set before LDAP tries to start the connection that should be sufficient. Observium doesn’t have any configuration related to this itself. You just need to coax whatever conglomeration of PHP and OpenLDAP code exists into talking to your LDAP server. You might be able to turn of the cert checking by putting “TLS_REQCERT never” into ldap.conf, probably /etc/openldap/ldap.conf or somewhere similar. Adam.

Alert dependency
by Toky ANDRIANASOLO 09 Feb '22

09 Feb '22

Hello, Is it possible to set an alert dependency on observium? for example if there are 04 devices on the network: 01 router and 03 cascading switches.. If the router goes down, we do not need the 03 switches sending an alert anymore as they depends on the router. This will save us from flooding alert and make the alerting system more efficient. Thank You and Regards, Toky,

alert sensibility setting
by Toky ANDRIANASOLO 09 Feb '22

09 Feb '22

Hello, we are setting an alert based on device status metric, so if the device status is 0 (down), an alert will be sent to a group of mail destination.. Now we want to adjust the alert sensibility of observium in order to sent the mail if the device is down for 10 mn, in other words, if the device is down then up after 8mn for example, we don't want to be alerted. Thank you and Regads, Toky
