Smartcard authentication for Icingaweb

Icinga Web 2
1

Hi all,

In our organization we use smartcards for login to our desktops, applications which validates the certificate in the smartcard against AD/Ldap.

Just trying to understand how can we implement the same for icingaweb?

I know how to read the certificate from the smartcard in apache httpd.conf, but not sure how to pass that information to icingaweb and respective role definition in the icingaweb and validate the certificate against the AD defined in Icinga web.

Any suggestions on this topic would be appreciated much.

With Regards,
Krishna Rajapantula

You can do it with your apache setup and set icingaweb2 to external auth. see the docs
