``` # DESCRIPTION **Net::LDAP::SPNEGO** provides the essential building blocks to implement NTLM SSO for Windows clients to webservers. It can be used to proxy NTLM tokens from the webbrowser to an active directory server using the SPNEGO protocol. The dialog between browser and server in an NTLM authentication dialog looks like this: ``` 1: C --> S GET ... 2: C <-- S 401 Unauthorized WWW-Authenticate: NTLM 3: C --> S GET ... Authorization: NTLM 4: C <-- S 401 Unauthorized WWW-Authenticate: NTLM 5: C --> S GET ... Authorization: NTLM 6: C <-- S 200 Ok ``` In contrast to modern web apis, the NTLM authentication dialog relies on a presistant connection between browser and server to correlate steps 3 and 5 of the dialog. The example above uses [Mojolicious::Lite](https://metacpan.org/pod/Mojolicious::Lite) but there is no inherent link to that particular framework except that NTLM authentication relies on persistant http connetions (keepalive) to linke the multi step authentication together. In other words, a cgi implementation will not work, since the cgi process gets. restarted with every request. Windows will only engage in seamless NTLM negotiation with sites residing in the local zone this may have to be configured in the Internet Settings dialog. # METHODS **Net::LDAP::SPNEGO** provides all the methods of [Net::LDAP](https://metacpan.org/pod/Net::LDAP) as well as the following: ## my $response = $ldap->bind\_type1($type1B64) Start binding the ldap connection. The argument to this method is the base64 encoded type1 NTLM token received from a browser request in the _Authorization_ header. ``` Authorization: NTLM base64encodedntlmtoken ``` The bind\_type1 call encodes this token in an SPNEGO message and uses it to initiate a bind call to the active directory server. The bind\_type1 call will return a [Net::LDAP::Message](https://metacpan.org/pod/Net::LDAP::Message) object received from the AD server in the same way the [Net::LDAP](https://metacpan.org/pod/Net::LDAP) call will in a regular bind request. If the request has been successful the response has an _ntlm\_type2\_base64_ property you can hand to your webbrowser for the next step. ``` WWW-Authenticate: NTLM $res->{ntlm_type2_base64} ``` ## my $mesg = $ldap->bind\_type3($type3B64) Complete binding the ldap connection. The argument to this method is the base64 encoded type3 NTLM token received from a browser request in the _Authorization_ header. ``` Authorization: NTLM base64encodedntlmtoken ``` The bind\_type3 call will return a [Net::LDAP::Message](https://metacpan.org/pod/Net::LDAP::Message) object received from the AD server in the same way the [Net::LDAP](https://metacpan.org/pod/Net::LDAP) call will in a regular bind request. The response object comes with an extra property: _ldap\_user\_entry_ containing the ldap user entry information. ```perl { 'pwdlastset' => '131153165937657397', 'objectcategory' => 'CN=Person,CN=Schema,CN=Configuration,DC=oetiker,DC=local', 'displayname' => 'Tobi Test', 'usncreated' => '362412', 'distinguishedname' => 'CN=TobiTest TT. Tobi,CN=Users,DC=oetiker,DC=local', 'countrycode' => '0', 'whenchanged' => '20160820154613.0Z', 'instancetype' => '4', 'lastlogontimestamp' => '131161815735975291', ... } ``` ## my $group\_hash = $ldap->get\_value\_ad\_groups($username) Query the ldap server for all the users group memberships, including the primary group and all the inherited memberships due to a group being a member of another group. The function uses the magic _member:1.2.840.113556.1.4.1941:_ query to effect a recursive search. The function returns a hash indexed by the _sAMAccountName_s of the groups containing the DN and the description of each group. ```perl { 'Remote Desktop Users' => { 'dn' => 'CN=Remote Desktop Users,CN=Builtin,DC=oetiker,DC=local', 'description' => 'Members in this group are granted the right ...' }, 'Users' => { 'dn' => 'CN=Users,CN=Builtin,DC=oetiker,DC=local', 'description' => 'Users are prevented from making accidental ...' }, 'Domain Users' => { 'description' => 'All domain users', 'dn' => 'CN=Domain Users,CN=Users,DC=oetiker,DC=local' } } ``` # EXAMPLE The included example script `eg/mojolite-demo.pl` shows how to use the module to implement NTLM authentication for a [Mojolicious::Lite](https://metacpan.org/pod/Mojolicious::Lite) webapplication. Use the following steps to run: ``` $ perl Makefile.PL $ make 3rd $ env AD_SERVER=ad-server.example.com ./eg/mojolite-demo.pl deamon ``` Now connect with your webbrowser to the webserver runing on port 3000. If you login from a Windows host and the url you are connecting resides in the local zone, you will see (or rather not see) seemless authentication take place. Finally a webpage will be displayed showing a list of groups you are a member of. The demo script stores your authentication in a cookie in your brower, so once you are authenticated, you will have to restart the browser or remove the cookie to force another authentication. # ACKNOWLEGEMENTS Implementing this module would not have been possible without the access to these imensly enlightening documents: [NTLM Authentication Scheme for HTTP](http://www.innovation.ch/personal/ronald/ntlm.html) by Ronald Tschalär, [The NTLM Authentication Protocol and Security Support Provider](http://davenport.sourceforge.net/ntlm.html) by Eric Glass as well as [The PyAuthenNTLM2 Module](https://github.com/Legrandin/PyAuthenNTLM2) by Helder Eijs.
