       sudoers.ldap - sudo LDAP configuration

D\bDE\bES\bSC\bCR\bRI\bIP\bPT\bTI\bIO\bON\bN
       In addition to the standard _\bs_\bu_\bd_\bo_\be_\br_\bs file, s\bsu\bud\bdo\bo may be configured via
       LAP.  This can be especially useful for synchronizing _\bs_\bu_\bd_\bo_\be_\br_\bs in a
       large, distributed environment.

       Using LDAP for _\bs_\bu_\bd_\bo_\be_\br_\bs has several benefits:

       +\bo   s\bsu\bud\bdo\bo no longer needs to read _\bs_\bu_\bd_\bo_\be_\br_\bs in its entirety.  When LDAP is
           used, there are only two or three LDAP queries per invocation.
           This makes it especially fast and particularly usable in LDAP
           environments.

       +\bo   s\bsu\bud\bdo\bo no longer exits if there is a typo in _\bs_\bu_\bd_\bo_\be_\br_\bs.  It is not
           possible to load LDAP data into the server that does not conform to
           the sudoers schema, so proper syntax is guaranteed.  It is still
           possible to have typos in a user or host name, but this will not
           prevent s\bsu\bud\bdo\bo from running.

       +\bo   It is possible to specify per-entry options that override the
           global default options.  _\b/_\be_\bt_\bc_\b/_\bs_\bu_\bd_\bo_\be_\br_\bs only supports default options
           and limited options associated with user/host/commands/aliases.
           The syntax is complicated and can be difficult for users to
           understand.  Placing the options directly in the entry is more
           natural.

       +\bo   The v\bvi\bis\bsu\bud\bdo\bo program is no longer needed.  v\bvi\bis\bsu\bud\bdo\bo provides locking
           and syntax checking of the _\b/_\be_\bt_\bc_\b/_\bs_\bu_\bd_\bo_\be_\br_\bs file.  Since LDAP updates
           are atomic, locking is no longer necessary.  Because syntax is
           checked when the data is inserted into LDAP, there is no need for a
           specialized tool to check syntax.

       Another major difference between LDAP and file-based _\bs_\bu_\bd_\bo_\be_\br_\bs is that in
       LDAP, s\bsu\bud\bdo\bo-specific Aliases are not supported.

       For the most part, there is really no need for s\bsu\bud\bdo\bo-specific Aliases.
       Unix groups or user netgroups can be used in place of User_Aliases and
       RunasAliases.  Host netgroups can be used in place of HostAliases.
       Since Unix groups and netgroups can also be stored in LDAP there is no
       real need for s\bsu\bud\bdo\bo-specific aliases.

       Cmnd_Aliases are not really required either since it is possible to
       have multiple users listed in a sudoRole.  Instead of defining a
       Cmnd_Alias that is referenced by multiple users, one can create a
       sudoRole that contains the commands and assign multiple users to it.

   S\bSU\bUD\bDO\bOe\ber\brs\bs L\bLD\bDA\bAP\bP c\bco\bon\bnt\bta\bai\bin\bne\ber\br
       The _\bs_\bu_\bd_\bo_\be_\br_\bs configuration is contained in the ou=SUDOers LDAP
       container.

       Sudo first looks for the cn=default entry in the SUDOers container.  If
       found, the multi-valued sudoOption attribute is parsed in the same

       manner as a global Defaults line in _\b/_\be_\bt_\bc_\b/_\bs_\bu_\bd_\bo_\be_\br_\bs.  In the following
       example, the SSH_AUTH_SOCK variable will be preserved in the
       environment for all users.

           sudoOption: env_keep+=SSH_AUTH_SOCK

       The equivalent of a sudoer in LDAP is a sudoRole.  It consists of the
       following components:

       s\bsu\bud\bdo\boU\bUs\bse\ber\br
           A user name, uid (prefixed with '#'), Unix group (prefixed with a
           '%') or user netgroup (prefixed with a '+').

       s\bsu\bud\bdo\boH\bHo\bos\bst\bt
           A host name, IP address, IP network, or host netgroup (prefixed
           with a '+').  The special value ALL will match any host.

       s\bsu\bud\bdo\boC\bCo\bom\bmm\bma\ban\bnd\bd
           A Unix command with optional command line arguments, potentially
           including globbing characters (aka wild cards).  The special value
           ALL will match any command.  If a command is prefixed with an
           exclamation point '!', the user will be prohibited from running
           that command.

       s\bsu\bud\bdo\boO\bOp\bpt\bti\bio\bon\bn
           Identical in function to the global options described above, but
           specific to the sudoRole in which it resides.

       s\bsu\bud\bdo\boR\bRu\bun\bnA\bAs\bsU\bUs\bse\ber\br
           A user name or uid (prefixed with '#') that commands may be run as
           or a Unix group (prefixed with a '%') or user netgroup (prefixed
           with a '+') that contains a list of users that commands may be run
           as.  The special value ALL will match any user.

       s\bsu\bud\bdo\boR\bRu\bun\bnA\bAs\bsG\bGr\bro\bou\bup\bp
           A Unix group or gid (prefixed with '#') that commands may be run
           as.  The special value ALL will match any group.

       Each component listed above should contain a single value, but there
       may be multiple instances of each component type.  A sudoRole must
       contain at least one sudoUser, sudoHost and sudoCommand.

       The following example allows users in group wheel to run any command on
       any host via s\bsu\bud\bdo\bo:

       When looking up a sudoer using LDAP there are only two or three LDAP
       queries per invocation.  The first query is to parse the global
       options.  The second is to match against the user's name and the groups
       that the user belongs to.  (The special ALL tag is matched in this
       query too.)  If no match is returned for the user's name and groups, a
       third query returns all entries containing user netgroups and checks to
       see if the user belongs to any of them.

   D\bDi\bif\bff\bfe\ber\bre\ben\bnc\bce\bes\bs b\bbe\bet\btw\bwe\bee\ben\bn L\bLD\bDA\bAP\bP a\ban\bnd\bd n\bno\bon\bn-\b-L\bLD\bDA\bAP\bP s\bsu\bud\bdo\boe\ber\brs\bs
       There are some subtle differences in the way sudoers is handled once in
       LDAP.  Probably the biggest is that according to the RFC, LDAP ordering
       is arbitrary and you cannot expect that Attributes and Entries are
       returned in any specific order.  If there are conflicting command rules
       on an entry, the negative takes precedence.  This is called paranoid
       behavior (not necessarily the most specific match).

       Here is an example:

           # /etc/sudoers:
           # Allow all commands except shell
           johnny  ALL=(root) ALL,!/bin/sh
           # Always allows all commands because ALL is matched last
           puddles ALL=(root) !/bin/sh,ALL

           # LDAP equivalent of johnny
           # Allows all commands except shell
           dn: cn=role1,ou=Sudoers,dc=my-domain,dc=com
           objectClass: sudoRole
           objectClass: top
           cn: role1
           sudoUser: johnny
           sudoHost: ALL
           sudoCommand: ALL
           sudoCommand: !/bin/sh

           # LDAP equivalent of puddles
           # Notice that even though ALL comes last, it still behaves like
           # role1 since the LDAP code assumes the more paranoid configuration
           dn: cn=role2,ou=Sudoers,dc=my-domain,dc=com
           objectClass: sudoRole
           objectClass: top
           cn: role2
           sudoUser: puddles
           sudoHost: ALL
           sudoCommand: !/bin/sh

SUDOERS.LDAP(4)        MAINTENANCE COMMANDS       SUDOERS.LDAP(4)


           sudoCommand: ALL

       Another difference is that negations on the Host, User or Runas are
       currently ignorred.  For example, the following attributes do not
       behave the way one might expect.

           # does not match all but joe
           # rather, does not match anyone
           sudoUser: !joe

           # does not match all but joe
           # rather, matches everyone including Joe
           sudoUser: ALL
           sudoUser: !joe

           # does not match all but web01
           # rather, matches all hosts including web01
           sudoHost: ALL
           sudoHost: !web01

   S\bSu\bud\bdo\boe\ber\brs\bs S\bSc\bch\bhe\bem\bma\ba
       In order to use s\bsu\bud\bdo\bo's LDAP support, the s\bsu\bud\bdo\bo schema must be installed
       on your LDAP server.  In addition, be sure to index the 'sudoUser'
       attribute.

       Three versions of the schema: one for OpenLDAP servers
       (_\bs_\bc_\bh_\be_\bm_\ba_\b._\bO_\bp_\be_\bn_\bL_\bD_\bA_\bP), one for Netscape-derived servers (_\bs_\bc_\bh_\be_\bm_\ba_\b._\bi_\bP_\bl_\ba_\bn_\be_\bt),
       and one for Microsoft Active Directory (_\bs_\bc_\bh_\be_\bm_\ba_\b._\bA_\bc_\bt_\bi_\bv_\be_\bD_\bi_\br_\be_\bc_\bt_\bo_\br_\by) may be
       found in the s\bsu\bud\bdo\bo distribution.

       The schema for s\bsu\bud\bdo\bo in OpenLDAP form is included in the EXAMPLES
       section.

   C\bCo\bon\bnf\bfi\big\bgu\bur\bri\bin\bng\bg l\bld\bda\bap\bp.\b.c\bco\bon\bnf\bf
       Sudo reads the _\b/_\be_\bt_\bc_\b/_\bl_\bd_\ba_\bp_\b._\bc_\bo_\bn_\bf file for LDAP-specific configuration.
       Typically, this file is shared amongst different LDAP-aware clients.
       As such, most of the settings are not s\bsu\bud\bdo\bo-specific.  Note that s\bsu\bud\bdo\bo
       parses _\b/_\be_\bt_\bc_\b/_\bl_\bd_\ba_\bp_\b._\bc_\bo_\bn_\bf itself and may support options that differ from
       those described in the _\bl_\bd_\ba_\bp_\b._\bc_\bo_\bn_\bf(4) manual.

       Also note that on systems using the OpenLDAP libraries, default values
       specified in _\b/_\be_\bt_\bc_\b/_\bo_\bp_\be_\bn_\bl_\bd_\ba_\bp_\b/_\bl_\bd_\ba_\bp_\b._\bc_\bo_\bn_\bf or the user's _\b._\bl_\bd_\ba_\bp_\br_\bc files are
       not used.

       Only those options explicitly listed in _\b/_\be_\bt_\bc_\b/_\bl_\bd_\ba_\bp_\b._\bc_\bo_\bn_\bf that are
       supported by s\bsu\bud\bdo\bo are honored.  Configuration options are listed below
       in upper case but are parsed in a case-independent manner.

       U\bUR\bRI\bI ldap[s]://[hostname[:port]] ...
           Specifies a whitespace-delimited list of one or more URIs
           describing the LDAP server(s) to connect to.  The _\bp_\br_\bo_\bt_\bo_\bc_\bo_\bl may be
           either l\bld\bda\bap\bp or l\bld\bda\bap\bps\bs, the latter being for servers that support TLS
           (SSL) encryption.  If no _\bp_\bo_\br_\bt is specified, the default is port 389
           for ldap:// or port 636 for ldaps://.  If no _\bh_\bo_\bs_\bt_\bn_\ba_\bm_\be is specified,

           s\bsu\bud\bdo\bo will connect to l\blo\boc\bca\bal\blh\bho\bos\bst\bt.  Only systems using the OpenSSL
           libraries support the mixing of ldap:// and ldaps:// URIs.  The
           Netscape-derived libraries used on most commercial versions of Unix
           are only capable of supporting one or the other.

       H\bHO\bOS\bST\bT name[:port] ...
           If no U\bUR\bRI\bI is specified, the H\bHO\bOS\bST\bT parameter specifies a whitespace-
           delimited list of LDAP servers to connect to.  Each host may
           include an optional _\bp_\bo_\br_\bt separated by a colon (':').  The H\bHO\bOS\bST\bT
           parameter is deprecated in favor of the U\bUR\bRI\bI specification and is
           included for backwards compatibility.

       P\bPO\bOR\bRT\bT port_number
           If no U\bUR\bRI\bI is specified, the P\bPO\bOR\bRT\bT parameter specifies the default
           port to connect to on the LDAP server if a H\bHO\bOS\bST\bT parameter does not
           specify the port itself.  If no P\bPO\bOR\bRT\bT parameter is used, the default
           is port 389 for LDAP and port 636 for LDAP over TLS (SSL).  The
           P\bPO\bOR\bRT\bT parameter is deprecated in favor of the U\bUR\bRI\bI specification and
           is included for backwards compatibility.

       B\bBI\bIN\bND\bD_\b_T\bTI\bIM\bME\bEL\bLI\bIM\bMI\bIT\bT seconds
           The B\bBI\bIN\bND\bD_\b_T\bTI\bIM\bME\bEL\bLI\bIM\bMI\bIT\bT parameter specifies the amount of time, in
           seconds, to wait while trying to connect to an LDAP server.  If
           multiple U\bUR\bRI\bIs or H\bHO\bOS\bST\bTs are specified, this is the amount of time to
           wait before trying the next one in the list.

       T\bTI\bIM\bME\bEL\bLI\bIM\bMI\bIT\bT seconds
           The T\bTI\bIM\bME\bEL\bLI\bIM\bMI\bIT\bT parameter specifies the amount of time, in seconds,
           to wait for a response to an LDAP query.

       S\bSU\bUD\bDO\bOE\bER\bRS\bS_\b_B\bBA\bAS\bSE\bE base
           The base DN to use when performing s\bsu\bud\bdo\bo LDAP queries.  Typically
           this is of the form ou=SUDOers,dc=example,dc=com for the domain
           example.com.

       S\bSU\bUD\bDO\bOE\bER\bRS\bS_\b_D\bDE\bEB\bBU\bUG\bG debug_level
           This sets the debug level for s\bsu\bud\bdo\bo LDAP queries.  Debugging
           information is printed to the standard error.  A value of 1 results
           in a moderate amount of debugging information.  A value of 2 shows
           the results of the matches themselves.  This parameter should not
           be set in a production environment as the extra information is
           likely to confuse users.

       B\bBI\bIN\bND\bDD\bDN\bN DN
           The B\bBI\bIN\bND\bDD\bDN\bN parameter specifies the identity, in the form of a
           Distinguished Name (DN), to use when performing LDAP operations.
           If not specified, LDAP operations are performed with an anonymous
           identity.  By default, most LDAP servers will allow anonymous
           access.

       B\bBI\bIN\bND\bDP\bPW\bW secret
           The B\bBI\bIN\bND\bDP\bPW\bW parameter specifies the password to use when performing
           LDAP operations.  This is typically used in conjunction with the
           B\bBI\bIN\bND\bDD\bDN\bN parameter.

       R\bRO\bOO\bOT\bTB\bBI\bIN\bND\bDD\bDN\bN DN
           The R\bRO\bOO\bOT\bTB\bBI\bIN\bND\bDD\bDN\bN parameter specifies the identity, in the form of a
           Distinguished Name (DN), to use when performing privileged LDAP
           operations, such as _\bs_\bu_\bd_\bo_\be_\br_\bs queries.  The password corresponding to
           the identity should be stored in _\b/_\be_\bt_\bc_\b/_\bl_\bd_\ba_\bp_\b._\bs_\be_\bc_\br_\be_\bt.  If not
           specified, the B\bBI\bIN\bND\bDD\bDN\bN identity is used (if any).

       L\bLD\bDA\bAP\bP_\b_V\bVE\bER\bRS\bSI\bIO\bON\bN number
           The version of the LDAP protocol to use when connecting to the
           server.  The default value is protocol version 3.

       S\bSS\bSL\bL on/true/yes/off/false/no
           If the S\bSS\bSL\bL parameter is set to on, true or yes, TLS (SSL)
           encryption is always used when communicating with the LDAP server.
           Typically, this involves connecting to the server on port 636
           (ldaps).

       S\bSS\bSL\bL start_tls
           If the S\bSS\bSL\bL parameter is set to start_tls, the LDAP server
           connection is initiated normally and TLS encryption is begun before
           the bind credentials are sent.  This has the advantage of not
           requiring a dedicated port for encrypted communications.  This
           parameter is only supported by LDAP servers that honor the
           start_tls extension, such as the OpenLDAP server.

       T\bTL\bLS\bS_\b_C\bCH\bHE\bEC\bCK\bKP\bPE\bEE\bER\bR on/true/yes/off/false/no
           If enabled, T\bTL\bLS\bS_\b_C\bCH\bHE\bEC\bCK\bKP\bPE\bEE\bER\bR will cause the LDAP server's TLS
           certificated to be verified.  If the server's TLS certificate
           cannot be verified (usually because it is signed by an unknown
           certificate authority), s\bsu\bud\bdo\bo will be unable to connect to it.  If
           T\bTL\bLS\bS_\b_C\bCH\bHE\bEC\bCK\bKP\bPE\bEE\bER\bR is disabled, no check is made.

       T\bTL\bLS\bS_\b_C\bCA\bAC\bCE\bER\bRT\bTF\bFI\bIL\bLE\bE file name
           The path to a certificate authority bundle which contains the
           certificates for all the Certificate Authorities the client knows
           to be valid, e.g. _\b/_\be_\bt_\bc_\b/_\bs_\bs_\bl_\b/_\bc_\ba_\b-_\bb_\bu_\bn_\bd_\bl_\be_\b._\bp_\be_\bm.  This option is only
           supported by the OpenLDAP libraries.

       T\bTL\bLS\bS_\b_C\bCA\bAC\bCE\bER\bRT\bTD\bDI\bIR\bR directory
           Similar to T\bTL\bLS\bS_\b_C\bCA\bAC\bCE\bER\bRT\bTF\bFI\bIL\bLE\bE but instead of a file, it is a directory
           containing individual Certificate Authority certificates, e.g.
           _\b/_\be_\bt_\bc_\b/_\bs_\bs_\bl_\b/_\bc_\be_\br_\bt_\bs.  The directory specified by T\bTL\bLS\bS_\b_C\bCA\bAC\bCE\bER\bRT\bTD\bDI\bIR\bR is
           checked after T\bTL\bLS\bS_\b_C\bCA\bAC\bCE\bER\bRT\bTF\bFI\bIL\bLE\bE.  This option is only supported by the

       T\bTL\bLS\bS_\b_R\bRA\bAN\bND\bDF\bFI\bIL\bLE\bE file name
           The T\bTL\bLS\bS_\b_R\bRA\bAN\bND\bDF\bFI\bIL\bLE\bE parameter specifies the path to an entropy source
           for systems that lack a random device.  It is generally used in

       Unless it is disabled at build time, s\bsu\bud\bdo\bo consults the Name Service
       Switch file, _\b/_\be_\bt_\bc_\b/_\bn_\bs_\bs_\bw_\bi_\bt_\bc_\bh_\b._\bc_\bo_\bn_\bf, to specify the _\bs_\bu_\bd_\bo_\be_\br_\bs search order.
       Sudo looks for a line beginning with sudoers: and uses this to
       determine the search order.  Note that s\bsu\bud\bdo\bo does not stop searching
       after the first match and later matches take precedence over earlier
       ones.

       The following sources are recognized:

           files       read sudoers from F</etc/sudoers>
           ldap        read sudoers from LDAP

       In addition, the entry [NOTFOUND=return] will short-circuit the search
       if the user was not found in the preceding source.

       To consult LDAP first followed by the local sudoers file (if it
       exists), use:

           sudoers: ldap files

       The local _\bs_\bu_\bd_\bo_\be_\br_\bs file can be ignored completely by using:

           sudoers: ldap

       If the _\b/_\be_\bt_\bc_\b/_\bn_\bs_\bs_\bw_\bi_\bt_\bc_\bh_\b._\bc_\bo_\bn_\bf file is not present or there is no sudoers
       line, the following default is assumed:

           sudoers: files

       Note that _\b/_\be_\bt_\bc_\b/_\bn_\bs_\bs_\bw_\bi_\bt_\bc_\bh_\b._\bc_\bo_\bn_\bf is supported even when the underlying
       operating system does not use an nsswitch.conf file.

   C\bCo\bon\bnf\bfi\big\bgu\bur\bri\bin\bng\bg n\bne\bet\bts\bsv\bvc\bc.\b.c\bco\bon\bnf\bf
       On AIX systems, the _\b/_\be_\bt_\bc_\b/_\bn_\be_\bt_\bs_\bv_\bc_\b._\bc_\bo_\bn_\bf file is consulted instead of
       _\b/_\be_\bt_\bc_\b/_\bn_\bs_\bs_\bw_\bi_\bt_\bc_\bh_\b._\bc_\bo_\bn_\bf.  s\bsu\bud\bdo\bo simply treats _\bn_\be_\bt_\bs_\bv_\bc_\b._\bc_\bo_\bn_\bf as a variant of
       _\bn_\bs_\bs_\bw_\bi_\bt_\bc_\bh_\b._\bc_\bo_\bn_\bf; information in the previous section unrelated to the
       file format itself still applies.

       To consult LDAP first followed by the local sudoers file (if it
       exists), use:

           sudoers = ldap, files

       The local _\bs_\bu_\bd_\bo_\be_\br_\bs file can be ignored completely by using:

           sudoers = ldap

       To treat LDAP as authoratative and only use the local sudoers file if
       the user is not present in LDAP, use:

           sudoers = ldap = auth, files

       Note that in the above example, the auth qualfier only affects user
