AD Ldap Authentication Debug
by Dan Letkeman 08 Feb '17

08 Feb '17

Hello, I'm trying to setup AD Ldap authentication and getting nowhere. I'm running observium version 17.1.8318 and PHP 7.0.15. I have ldap enabled and I have verified that with phpinfo. When I try to login with these settings in my config.php it just goes back to the login page with no failed login message or any other notice. I have tried to use observium.domain.com/debug/ but it does the same thing. $config['auth_ldap_binddn'] = "cn=ldapproxy,cn=Users,dc=domain,dc=ca"; $config['auth_ldap_bindpw'] = "password"; $config['auth_ldap_attr']['uid'] = "sAMAccountName"; $config['auth_ldap_attr']['uidNumber'] = "objectSid"; $config['auth_ldap_attr']['cn'] = "name"; $config['auth_ldap_attr']['dn'] = "distinguishedname"; $config['auth_ldap_objectclass'] = "person"; $config['auth_ldap_version'] = 3; $config['auth_ldap_server'] = "ldap.domain.ca"; $config['auth_ldap_port'] = 389; $config['auth_ldap_starttls'] = FALSE; $config['auth_ldap_prefix'] = "CN="; $config['auth_ldap_suffix'] = ",DC=domain,DC=ca"; $config['auth_ldap_group'] = array("CN=Domain Admins,OU=Users,DC=domain,DC= ca"); $config['auth_ldap_groupbase'] = "OU=Users,DC=domain,DC=ca"; $config['auth_ldap_groupmembertype'] = "fulldn"; $config['auth_ldap_groupmemberattr'] = "member"; unset($config['auth_ldap_groups']); $config['auth_ldap_groups']['CN=Domain Admins,OU=Users,DC=domain,DC=Ca']['level'] = 10; $config['auth_ldap_groups']['CN=Domain Users,OU=Users,DC=domain,DC=Ca']['level'] = 1; Is there a log somewhere that shows whats happening? Also I am unable to start httpd on centos7 with these virtual host settings as per the installation manual: <VirtualHost *> DocumentRoot /opt/observium/html/ ServerName observium.domain.ca CustomLog /opt/observium/logs/access_log combined ErrorLog /opt/observium/logs/error_log <Directory "/opt/observium/html/"> AllowOverride All Options FollowSymLinks MultiViews Require all granted </Directory> </VirtualHost> Thee customlog and errorlog lines have to be commented out for the server to start. Can anyone verify that those log settings work on centos7? Perhaps I have some kind of rights issues with the files? Thanks, Dan.

Observium wrong graph traffic statistic
by Sophanith Chhom 07 Feb '17

07 Feb '17

Dear Team, I just install Observium and as I observed the graph traffic statistic seem not accurate compared to my Cacti graph monitoring system then I ask my Network Engineer to check which one is accurate traffic between Observium and Cacti, as the result after checking real traffic on my router device, Observium seems not accurate. Note: Graph statistic value is different is around 1GB, this is a huge number. Can anyone explain why or anyone experiences like me? [image: Inline image 1] My real Out traffic should be around 5.78GB instead Thanks so much.

It is possible to see them via www.domain.net/graph.php?type=device_ping&device=?? but this is not perfect for us, intergrade some where into the panel will be nice. Thanks for your reply.

New Host addition without auto adding all ports
by Lee Byatt 02 Feb '17

02 Feb '17

Hello, Good Morning. I have a fairly large deployment that I am working on and I have the need to add many hosts. I am not specifically bothered about their interface throughput so do not want them auto added on a poll of a new device. I may then go in separately for the core router and core switch/distribution switches to add interfaces/ports of specific interest and my discretion. Is there a way I can achieve this.
