==========================
Create LDAP Linux Groups
==========================
|prod| offers |LDAP| commands to create and manage |LDAP| Linux groups as part of the `ldapscripts` library.
.. rubric:: |context|
.. note::
For security reasons, it is recommended that ONLY admin level users be
allowed to |SSH| to the nodes of the |prod|. Non-admin level users should
strictly use remote CLIs or remote web GUIs.
The main commands that manage |LDAP| Linux groups are: ``ldapaddgroup`` ,
``ldapaddusertogroup``, ``ldapdeletegroup``, ``ldapdeleteuserfromgroup``.
To list all the commands in the `ldapscripts` library, the following command
can be used:
.. code-block:: none
sysadmin@controller-0:~$ ls /usr/sbin/ldap*
/usr/sbin/ldapaddgroup /usr/sbin/ldapid
/usr/sbin/ldapaddmachine /usr/sbin/ldapinit
/usr/sbin/ldapaddsudo /usr/sbin/ldapmodifygroup
/usr/sbin/ldapadduser /usr/sbin/ldapmodifymachine
/usr/sbin/ldapaddusertogroup /usr/sbin/ldapmodifysudo
/usr/sbin/ldapdeletegroup /usr/sbin/ldapmodifyuser
/usr/sbin/ldapdeletemachine /usr/sbin/ldaprenamegroup
/usr/sbin/ldapdeletesudo /usr/sbin/ldaprenamemachine
/usr/sbin/ldapdeleteuser /usr/sbin/ldaprenameuser
/usr/sbin/ldapdeleteuserfromgroup /usr/sbin/ldapsetpasswd
/usr/sbin/ldapfinger /usr/sbin/ldapsetprimarygroup
/usr/sbin/ldapgid /usr/sbin/ldapusersetup
The |LDAP| commands usage information can be found from man pages or using
the "--help" option. For example, this is the usage information for creating
or adding a |LDAP| Linux group.
.. code-block:: none
sysadmin@controller-0:~$ ldapaddgroup --help
Usage : /usr/sbin/ldapaddgroup <groupname> [gid]
sysadmin@controller-0:~$ man ldapaddgroup
