This authentication method operates similarly to
<literal>password</literal> except that it uses LDAP
as the authentication method. LDAP is used only to validate
the user name/password pairs. Therefore the user must already
exist in the database before LDAP can be used for
authentication. The server and parameters used are specified
after the <literal>ldap</> key word in the file
<filename>pg_hba.conf</filename>. The format of this parameter is:
<synopsis>
ldap[<replaceable>s</>]://<replaceable>servername</>[:<replaceable>port</>]/<replaceable>base dn</replaceable>[;<replaceable>prefix</>[;<replaceable>suffix</>]]
</synopsis>
for example:
<synopsis>
ldap://ldap.example.net/dc=example,dc=net;EXAMPLE\
</synopsis>
</para>
<para>
If <literal>ldaps</> is specified instead of <literal>ldap</>,
TLS encryption will be enabled for the connection. Note that this
will encrypt only the connection between the PostgreSQL server
and the LDAP server. The connection between the client and the
PostgreSQL server is not affected by this setting. To make use of
TLS encryption, you may need to configure the LDAP library prior
to configuring PostgreSQL.
</para>
<para>
If no port is specified, the default port as configured in the
LDAP library will be used.
</para>
<para>
The server will bind to the distinguished name specified as
<replaceable>base dn</> using the username supplied by the client.
If <replaceable>prefix</> and <replaceable>suffix</> is
specified, it will be prepended and appended to the username
before the bind. Typically, the prefix parameter is used to specify
<replaceable>cn=</>, or <replaceable>DOMAIN\</> in an Active
Directory environment.
