AuthTool is a self-service password reset and SSH public key management application for OpenLDAP directories.

Features include:

• Forgotten passwords can be reset using a token sent by email.
• Forgotten username reminders can be sent by email.
• Passwords can be changed using the current password.
• SSH public keys can be validated and added or deleted.

This application makes many assumptions about your LDAP server's configuration and schema.

• The sshPublicKey schema from the openssh-ldap-publickey project.
• The posixUser objectClass
• The sambaSamAccount objectClass

This application assumes anonymous binds are permitted for obtaining limited user information. A service account is used for administrative operations such as setting passwords.

You can run AuthTool in two supported ways: Docker and locally. Both use the same interface, so it comes down to personal preference.

A Dockerfile is included to build and run the application.

This application is meant to use the internal CherryPy server. Therefore, it can simply be run using the provided module:

python serve.py
