Description

This module manages Cyrus SASL.

Setup

What sasl affects

This module can install per-application SASL configuration, automatically pulling in any additional packages to provide the required authentication methods. It can also manage saslauthd if that is the chosen mechanism along with its own configuration options.

Beginning with sasl

In the very simplest case, you can just include the following:

include ::sasl

Usage

To configure Postfix for DIGEST-MD5 and CRAM-MD5 authentication using the sasldb backend:

include ::sasl

::sasl::application { 'smtpd':
  pwcheck_method => 'auxprop',
  auxprop_plugin => 'sasldb',
  mech_list      => ['digest-md5', 'cram-md5'],
}

To configure Postfix for PLAIN and LOGIN authentication using the saslauthd backend which itself is using LDAP+STARTTLS:

include ::sasl

class { '::sasl::authd':
  mechanism           => 'ldap',
  ldap_auth_method    => 'bind',
  ldap_search_base    => 'ou=people,dc=example,dc=com',
  ldap_servers        => ['ldap://ldap.example.com'],
  ldap_start_tls      => true,
  ldap_tls_cacert_dir => '/etc/pki/tls/certs',
  ldap_tls_ciphers    => 'AES256',
}

::sasl::application { 'smtpd':
  pwcheck_method => 'saslauthd',
  mech_list      => ['plain', 'login'],
}

Reference

The reference documentation is generated with puppet-strings and the latest version of the documentation is hosted at https://bodgit.github.io/puppet-sasl/ and available also in the REFERENCE.md.

Limitations

This module has been built on and tested against Puppet 5 and higher.

The module has been tested on:

  • RedHat Enterprise Linux 6/7
  • Ubuntu 14.04/16.04
  • Debian 8

Development

The module relies on PDK and has both rspec-puppet and beaker-rspec tests. Run them with:

$ bundle exec rake spec
$ PUPPET_INSTALL_TYPE=agent PUPPET_INSTALL_VERSION=x.y.z bundle exec rake beaker:<nodeset>
