How to debug Soffid LDAP

Installation

Prerequisites

To install Soffid LDAP, you must install Docker. Despite Docker desktop can be used for testing purposes, Docker container runtime usage is recommended.

Installation

To start Soffid LDAP, execute:

docker volume create ldapconf
docker volume creade ldapdata
docker run --name soffidldap -p 1389:389 -v ldapconf:/etc/ldap/slapd.d -v ldapdata:/var/lib/ldap -d -e SOFFID_SERVER=https://<SYNCSERVERNAME>:760 -e SOFFID_AGENT=<SOFFID_AGENT> -e USER=<ADMIN_USERNAME> -e PASSWORD=<ADMIN_PASSWORD> -e DN=<YOUR_BASE_DN> soffidldap
