How to synchronize users from OpenLDAP using Directory Sync

July 11, 2024 By Rublon Authors

Last updated on February 24, 2025

The synchronization of users from OpenLDAP is almost the same as from Active Directory. The only difference is that you have to set the source_type option to openldap in the configuration file. Keep in mind that this will change some of the default attributes (e.g., username_attribute will be changed to uid). You can see the full list of attributes in the Rublon Authentication Proxy documentation.

Note that, as of the time of writing this article, users imported from OpenLDAP by the Directory Sync feature will also have an “AD” label next to them in the Users tab.
