Package: django-auth-spnego
# django-auth-spnegoThis project provides SPNEGO and Kerberos authentication to a django project. You can do this with apacheor IIS and use Django's RemoteUser middleware for authentication but I don't use those web serversand others don't support it.The actual authorization is done using a middleware that handles the kerberos negotiation andthe django user management and login handling implements the incredibly useful[django-auth-ldap](https://bitbucket.org/illocution/django-auth-ldap).The hardest thing about getting this working is getting the kerberos set up properly between yourapplication server and the AD domain. Some docs for this are coming.If your django project uses sessions for much other than authentication then this projectmight not be for you, as the middleware will log a user out after the kerberos tickethas expired (default 600 minutes) which destroys the entire session. You can change thisbut then you have to figure out how you're going to destroy a session when the user'skerberos session ticket expires.### Prerequisites* An Active Directory Domain* A valid kerberos configuration on your application server* An SPN created for the user running the application server### InstallingYou will need to add the following to your `settings.py` in your django project.Add the middleware to django's `MIDDLEWARE` setting below the `AuthenticationMiddleware`.The order of your middlware classes are important as django-auth-spnego requires `request.user`to be set by `AuthenticationMiddleware`. For example:```pythonMIDDLEWARE = ['django.middleware.security.SecurityMiddleware','django.contrib.sessions.middleware.SessionMiddleware','django.middleware.common.CommonMiddleware','django.middleware.csrf.CsrfViewMiddleware','django.contrib.auth.middleware.AuthenticationMiddleware','authspnego.middleware.AuthSpnegoMiddleware','django.contrib.messages.middleware.MessageMiddleware','django.middleware.clickjacking.XFrameOptionsMiddleware',]```Add the `LDAPBackend` to your `AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS` setting:```pythonAUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS = ('django_auth_ldap.backend.LDAPBackend','django.contrib.auth.backends.ModelBackend',)```Add the SPNEGO specific settings. It's critical you get these values right or none of this will work:```pythonSPNEGO_REALM = 'LAB.AZMOO.ID.AU' # Your AD Domain. This is almost always capitalised.SPNEGO_HOSTNAME = 'your-app-server.lab.azmoo.id.au' # The FQDN of your app server.SPNEGO_EXPIRE_LOGIN = 600 # Set this to false to never expire```Finally you need to configure [django-auth-ldap](https://bitbucket.org/illocution/django-auth-ldap).## VersioningWe use [SemVer](http://semver.org/) for versioning.
