lldap is a lightweight LDAP authentication server written in Rust, providing an opinionated, simplified LDAP interface for user management. It ships with a friendly web UI for administration and self-service password resets, integrating with services like Nextcloud, KeyCloak, and Authelia.

Use cases

  • self-hosted ldap authentication server
  • manage users for nextcloud via ldap
  • lightweight alternative to openldap
  • centralized authentication for self-hosted apps
  • let users reset their own passwords
  • integrate authelia or keycloak with ldap
  • simple ldap server for homelab

When to choose

  • you need LDAP auth for self-hosted apps without the complexity of slapd
  • you want a web UI for user and group management
  • you want low resource usage and simple defaults
  • users need self-service password reset by email

When to avoid

  • you need a full-featured LDAP server with schemas and replication
  • you need OAuth/OpenID Connect natively without pairing with another IdP
  • you require advanced LDAP features like ACLs or custom attributes
