ubuntu/glauth repository overview

ubuntu/glauth is a rock for glauth maintained by Canonical⁠.

Go-lang LDAP Authentication (GLAuth) is a secure, easy-to-use, LDAP server with configurable backends. Use it to centralize account management across your Linux servers, your OSX machines, and your support applications (Jenkins, Apache/Nginx, Graylog2, and many more!).

• Centrally manage accounts across your infrastructure
• Centrally manage SSH keys, Linux accounts, and passwords for cloud servers.
• Lightweight alternative to OpenLDAP and Active Directory for development, or a homelab.
• Store your user directory in a file, local or in S3; SQL database; or proxy to existing LDAP servers.
• Two Factor Authentication (transparent to applications)
• Multiple backends can be chained to inject features
