• Install Node 4.4.7 with nave:

$ curl -o /opt/nave https://raw.github.com/isaacs/nave/master/nave.sh
$ chmod +x /opt/nave
$ /opt/nave install 4.4.7
$ /opt/nave usemain 4.4.7

• Download the repository:

$ curl -Lo - https://github.com/auth0/ad-ldap-connector/tarball/master | tar -xzf -  -C /tmp

• Move to /opt

$ mv /tmp/auth0-ad-ldap-connector-*/ /opt/auth0-ad-ldap/

• Access /opt/auth0-ad-ldap/ and install modules as follows:

$ npm i --production

• Run the connector for the first time:

$ node server.js

• Add your connector ticket when requested.

• Add your LDAP URL and LDAP base DN when requested.

• Add your LDAP user settings to config.json file and then run the connector again:

$ vi config.json
$ node server.js

• Verify with the Try button in the dashboard if your connector is working.

• Once a your service is working with the Try button, we are going to configure it as an upstar daemon:

# Create a system account:
$ useradd ad-ldap-connector -r

# Create a log file and change the owner to the system account:
$ touch /var/log/ad-ldap-connector.log
$ chown ad-ldap-connector /var/log/ad-ldap-connector.log

# Change the owner of the connector directory:
$ chown -R ad-ldap-connector /opt/auth0-ad-ldap/

• Create an upstart job in /etc/init/ad-ldap-connector.conf:

env NAME=ad-ldap-connector
env LOG_FILE=/var/log/ad-ldap-connector.log
env USER=ad-ldap-connector
env DIR=/opt/auth0-ad-ldap/
env SCRIPT_FILE=server.js
env NODE_BIN=/usr/local/bin/node

start on started network
stop on stopping network

# Respawn in case of a crash, with default parameters
respawn

script
  cd $DIR
  exec su -s /bin/sh -c 'exec "$0" "$@"' $USER -- $NODE_BIN $SCRIPT_FILE >> $LOG_FILE 2>&1
end script

post-start script
  echo "app $NAME post-start event" >> $LOG_FILE
end script

• Start the service

$ initctl start ad-ldap-connector

• You can check the application logs as follows:

$  tail -f /var/log/ad-ldap-connector.log
