Here is the configuration for prosody_0.8 and mod_auth_ldap at: <http://code.google.com/p/prosody-modules/wiki/mod_auth_ldap> --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- root@debian:~# apt-get install prosody [at least!] root@debian:~# apt-get install liblua5.1-sec1 [Prosody SASL requires TLS] root@debian:~# cat /etc/prosody/prosody.cfg.lua authentication = "ldap" ldap_server = "ldap.example.com" ldap_rootdn = "cn=admin,dc=example,dc=com" ldap_bind_pw: "PASSWORD" ldap_base = "ou=people,dc=example,dc=com" root@debian:~# service prosody restart Restarting Prosody XMPP Server: prosody. --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- Your JID will be 'ldap_...@example.com': ATM there is no way to configure that with the mod_auth_ldap.lua version in prosody-modules. However, as Stefan Hepp's found out, ldap-search will silently fail without ldap_scope, so I backported Stefan's "patch": <https://groups.google.com/group/prosody-dev/browse_thread/thread/282e876116ae4177/906121492495ad35> The attached hg patch is enough for mod_auth_ldap.lua to authenticate using LDAP_UID and no TLS: lua-ldap does work (even on squeeze), so I uploaded it. With this email I am also stopping providing feedback about Prosody and LDAP, I will continue elsewhere :-) Thx, bye, Gismo / Luca

mod_auth_ldap/mod_auth_ldap.lua: add ldap_scope
Without ldap_scope in provider.test_password(username, password), the
ldap-search silently fails.
This was taken from Stefan Hepp's improved mod_auth_ldap.lua.
