Sync Zabbix with LDAP directory server

zabbix-ldap-sync -- Sync your Zabbix users with LDAP directory server

The zabbix-ldap-sync script is used for keeping your Zabbix users in sync with an LDAP directory server.

It can automatically import existing LDAP groups and users into Zabbix, thus making it easy for you to keep your Zabbix users in sync with LDAP.

Requirements

• Python 2.7.x
• python-ldap
• zabbix_api
• docopt

You also need to have your Zabbix Frontend configured to authenticate against an AD/LDAP directory server.

Check the official documentation of Zabbix on how to configure Zabbix to authenticate against an AD/LDAP directory server.

Configuration

In order to use the zabbix-ldap-sync script we need to create a configuration file describing the various LDAP and Zabbix related config entries:

[ldap]
uri = ldaps://ldap.example.org:636/
base = dc=example,dc=org
groups = sysadmins

[zabbix]
server = http://zabbix.example.org/zabbix/
username = admin
password = adminp4ssw0rd

Importing LDAP users into Zabbix

Now that we have the above mentioned configuration file created, let's import our groups and users from LDAP to Zabbix.

$ zabbix-ldap-sync -f /path/to/zabbix-ldap.conf

Once the script completes, check your Zabbix Frontend to verify that users are successfully imported.

You would generally be running the above script on regular basis, say each day from cron(8) in order to make sure your Zabbix system is in sync with LDAP.
