Hi. I have been working toward trying to get a shinyproxy server going at my organization, and I have managed to get a test version running and hosting a simple shiny app using simple authentication. I have previously been running my shiny apps using shiny server and a home-made LDAP binding mechanism using curl, but I’m interested in the shinyproxy ldap authentication mechanism.
We use AD at my org, but previously I had been using the logging-in user’s credentials to do the bind and to and retrieve group membership, etc. It seems like the shinyproxy ldap configuration requires that I input a “manager-dn” and “manager-password” in order to perform the initial bind.
Is a “manager” account required in order to do the process? I don’t necessarily have access to any such account, but users are able to bind to the LDAP server and retrieve group membership, etc with their own credentials.
Thanks in advance.
