web2ldap is an open-source LDAP client that’s super handy! It’s written in Python and can run as a stand-alone web gateway or with a web server like Apache using FastCGI. Pretty cool, right?

Your Go-To LDAP Client

web2ldap is like a Swiss army knife for accessing and managing LDAP servers. You don’t even need to set up anything complicated to get started. Plus, it’s secure and comes with a schema browser along with a customizable platform perfect for trying out different LDAP admin tasks.

Easy Installation Process

You’ll be happy to know that installing the web2ldap software is super simple! Just make sure you have all its dependencies first. Download the latest version to your Home directory, then use an archive manager to extract everything from the archive.

Paving the Way for Setup

When you extract the files, put them in the /opt directory (you'll need root access for this—so think sudo!). Rename the folder from /opt/web2ldap-1.2.11 to /opt/web2ldap. Then, don't forget to edit the configuration modules located in the [web2ldapdir]/etc/web2ldap/web2ldapcnf/ folder.

Running Your Server Smoothly

You can configure and run your web server in standalone mode by using the [web2ldapdir]/sbin/web2ldap.py file. For more info, check out their detailed documentation on their official site (link at the end). It’s all laid out there!
