Abstract

This document describes the stoney core relevant OpenLDAP directory data organisation.

Data Organisation

The following chapters explain the data organisation of the stoney cloud OpenLDAP directory. This document describes the stoney core relevant OpenLDAP directory data organisation.

Administration

The subtree ou=administration,dc=stoney-cloud,dc=org contains all the administrative data.

nextfreeuid

The entry cn=nextfreeuid,ou=administration,dc=stoney-cloud,dc=org stores the next free UID (Unique Identifier). The <uid> is unique over the whole directory and is enforced through the directory and is incremented by one.

dn: cn=nextfreeuid,ou=administration,dc=stoney-cloud,dc=org
objectclass: sstNextFreeUID
cn: nextfreeuid
uid: 3724591
uidNumber: 3724591

The following table describes the different attributes:

Attribute	Objectclass	Existance	Mandatory	Description
cn	...	MUST	x	The name of the leaf. For the next free uid, this is: `nextfreeuid`.
uid	...	...	x	...

Legend:

x: Mandatory in all cases.

Before using this attribute uidNumber, you need to be sure, that your directory server actually supports atomic increments (LDAP Modify-Increment). See Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) Parameters and Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) Modify-Increment Extension (RFC4525).

The following search should tell you, if you LDAP server supports the LDAP Modify-Increment Object Identifier Descriptor (OID 1.3.6.1.1.14):

ldapsearch -H ldaps://ldapm.stepping-stone.ch -b "" -s base -D "cn=Manager,dc=stoney-cloud,dc=org" -W \* + | grep 1.3.6.1.1.14

The result should look as follows:

supportedFeatures: 1.3.6.1.1.14

Options:

-H ldapuri
-b searchbase
-D binddn
-W Prompt for simple authentication.
\* All user attributes are returned. 
+  All operational attributes are returned.

Billing

The sub tree ou=billing,ou=administration,dc=stoney-cloud,dc=org stores all the billing relevant data. Each billable item (bundle, service or service item) is stored in this sub tree.

dn: ou=billing,ou=administration,dc=stoney-cloud,dc=org
objectclass: top
objectclass: organizationalUnit
ou: billing

The following LDIF extract shows the billing schema for the product "Mail Account".

dn: uid=100001,ou=billing,ou=administration,dc=stoney-cloud,dc=org
description: Default pricing schema for the product Mail Account.
objectclass: top
objectclass: sstBillingPriceSchema
sstbaseprice: 0
sstbelongstouid: 1
sstbillingunit: Gigabyte
sstfreeunit: 0
sstpriceformula: sstPricePerUnit * sstQuota
sstpriceperunit: 4.00
sstproductname: Mail Account
uid: 100001
sstBelongsToUID: 1

The finale price is calculated with the help of the stored formula (sstPriceFormula). The customer price for a "Mail Account" with a 2 Gigabyte large mailbox (quota) is calculated as follows: Price = sstPricePerUnit * sstQuota = 4.00 CHF/(Gigabyte * Month) * 2 Gigabyte = 8 CHF/Month

All prices are stored in Swiss Francs (because the company stepping stone GmbH resides in Switzerland). You can decide about the default currency yourself. Once a month a billing run is executed, which scans the whole directory. The billing run is a currently "work in progress". For more information, please contact our Accounting departement.

Group Mapping

Used for the group mapping from the given readable format to the local group UID format.

dn: ou=group mapping,ou=administration,dc=stoney-cloud,dc=org
objectclass: top
objectclass: organizationalUnit
objectclass: labeledURIObject
objectclass: sstLDAPSearchObjectClass
ou: group mapping
description: This entry describes, how to map a given group name to an UID in the local LDAP directory.
sstDisplayName: Group Mapping
sstLDAPBaseDn: ou=groups,dc=stoney-cloud,dc=org
sstLDAPFilter: (&(objectClass=sstGroupObjectClass)(sstGroupName=%s)(sstBelongsToResellerUID=%sstBelongsToResellerUID)(sstBelongsToCustomerUID=%sstBelongsToCustomerUID))
sstLDAPStaticAttribute: uid

Example Mapping for the Technology Group

The following search maps the group Technology belonging to the reseller with the sstBelongsToResellerUID 4000000 and the customer with the sstBelongsToCustomerUID 4000001 to the uid 4000014:

ldapsearch -D "cn=Manager,dc=stoney-cloud,dc=org" -w admin -H "ldap://10.1.130.14:389" -b "ou=groups,dc=stoney-cloud,dc=org" "(&(objectClass=sstGroupObjectClass)(sstGroupName=Technology)(sstBelongsToResellerUID=4000000)(sstBelongsToCustomerUID=4000001))" uid

# extended LDIF

# base <ou=groups,dc=stoney-cloud,dc=org> with scope subtree
# filter: (&(objectClass=sstGroupObjectClass)(sstGroupName=Technology)(sstBelongsToResellerUID=4000000)(sstBelongsToCustomerUID=4000001))
# requesting: uid 
#

Example Mapping for all Groups

The following search lists all the existing Groups to belonging to the reseller with the sstBelongsToResellerUID 4000000 and the customer with the sstBelongsToCustomerUID 4000001 with the corresponding uids:

ldapsearch -D "cn=Manager,dc=stoney-cloud,dc=org" -w admin -H "ldap://10.1.130.14:389" -b "ou=groups,dc=stoney-cloud,dc=org" "(&(objectClass=sstGroupObjectClass)(sstGroupName=*)(sstBelongsToResellerUID=4000000)(sstBelongsToCustomerUID=4000001))" uid

# extended LDIF

People (Superuser)

The sub tree ou=people,ou=administration,dc=stoney-cloud,dc=org list all users, which have super user richts (users with the attribute sstBelongsToUID=1). This entry uses the functionality of the the dynlist overlay. The attribut labeleduri contains a pre-defined search, which leads to a automatically created list.

dn: ou=people,ou=administration,dc=stoney-cloud,dc=org
objectclass: top
objectclass: organizationalUnit
objectclass: labeledURIObject
ou: people
labeleduri: ldap:///ou=people,dc=stoney-cloud,dc=org??one?(sstBelongsToUID=1)
member: uid=1000000,ou=people,dc=stoney-cloud,dc=org
member: uid=1000003,ou=people,dc=stoney-cloud,dc=org
member: uid=1000004,ou=people,dc=stoney-cloud,dc=org

As you can see, the OpenLDAP has three people withe Superuser rights.

The multi-valued labeledURI attribute contains the operating system(s) for which a software stack works and therefore can be shown to the customer. The following three attributes tell us, who is allowed to access this leaf:

sstAllowResellerUID: Stores the reseller UID(s) that are allowed access to this leaf. If set to 0 (zero), all resellers have access.
sstAllowCustomerUID: Stores the customer UID(s) that are allowed access to this leaf. If set to 0 (zero), all customers belonging to the allowed resellers have access.
sstAllowPersonUID: Stores the person UID(s) that are allowed access to this leaf. If set to 0 (zero), all people belonging to the allowed resellers and the allowed customers have access.

Customers

The sub tree ou=customers,dc=stoney-cloud,dc=org contains all the customers. Each customer has a unique uid, which is used for later reference.

Customers - Customer

We have two kinds of customers:

Company customer: This is the normal case, as we target companies.
Private customer: A private customer does not have a company/organisation name.

The following LDIF examples will show both cases where necessary. The first LDIF shows you the default company customer entry after a fresh stoney cloud installation. All relevant data belonging to this customer is stored below this dn.

objectclass: top
objectclass: organizationalUnit
objectclass: sstBillingCustomer
ou: billing
sstBillable: TRUE

The following table describes the different attributes:

Attribute	Existence	Mandatory	Description
sstBillable	MAY	x²	All hierarchical levels must have `sstBillable: TRUE` to actually have an invoice generated and sent. If the attribute `sstBillable` doesn't exist, the default is `TRUE`. This way, we are forced to set a reseller, customer or product manually to `sstBillable: FALSE` if we want to avoid sending them an invoice.
sstBillingCycle	MAY		Billing cycle in months. This attribute `sstBillingCycle` is only checked (evaluated), if the reseller the customer belongs to, has `sstResellerBill` set to `FALSE` (as is the case for the reseller stepping stone GmbH). Possible values: 1: Monthly invoice. 3: Quarterly invoice. 6: Semi-annually invoice. 12: Yearly invoice (this is the default billing period if no `sstBillingCycle` is set).
sstCurrency	MAY		Three-letter currency code according to ISO 4217. Possible values are: CHF: Swiss franc (this is the default currency if no `sstCurrency` is set). EUR: Euro GBP: Pound sterling USD: United States dollar
sstPaymentMethod	MAY		Payment method of the invoice. Possible values are: invoice: Classic invoice, sent according to the delivery method defined in `sstDeliveryMethod` (this is the default payment method if no `sstPaymentMethod` is set). postcard: Electronic invoice via PostFinance. creditcard: Credit card payment.
sstDeliveryMethod	MAY		Delivery method of invoices or access data. Possible values are: email: The invoice or access data is sent via email to the recipient. post: The invoice or access data is sent via snail mail to the recipient (this is the default delivery method if no `sstDeliveryMethod` is set).
sstDiscount	MAY		An optional customer discount (an integer value between 0 and 100). Default is 0.
sstCancellationDate	MAY		The cancellation date of a reseller, customer or service in the form of [YYYY][MM][DD] (ISO 8601). For example: 20181231. The attribute `sstCancellationDate` is used in a logical AND combination with `sstIsActive`.
sstMailToUID	MAY	x¹	This attribute `sstMailToUID` is only checked (evaluated), if the delivery method `sstDeliveryMethod` is set to `email`. Even though this attribute is multi-valued, we expect on recipient only. Stores the UID (Unique Identifier in the form integer value with 7 digits) of the person an email is sent to via To. This UID is used to look up the persons mail address, preferred language, name, surname or other information in the sub tree ou=people,dc=stoney-cloud,dc=org. For example: 4000002.
sstMailCcUID	MAY		This attribute `sstMailCcUID` is only checked (evaluated), if the delivery method `sstDeliveryMethod` is set to `email`. Please be aware, that this attribure ist multi-valued and multiple recipients are to be expected. Stores the UID (Unique Identifier in the form integer value with 7 digits) of the person an email is sent to via CC. This UID is used to look up the persons mail address, preferred language, name, surname or other information in the sub tree ou=people,dc=stoney-cloud,dc=org. For example: 4000064.
sstMailBccUID	MAY		This attribute `sstMailBccUID` is only checked (evaluated), if the delivery method `sstDeliveryMethod` is set to `email`. Please be aware, that this attribure ist multi-valued and multiple recipients are to be expected. Stores the UID (Unique Identifier in the form integer value with 7 digits) of the person an email is sent to via BCC. This UID is used to look up the persons mail address, preferred language, name, surname or other information in the sub tree ou=people,dc=stoney-cloud,dc=org. For example: 4000066 or 4000069.

Legend:

x: Mandatory in all cases.
x¹: The attribute sstMailToUID is mandatory, if the delivery method sstDeliveryMethod is set to email.
x²: As the default of the attribute sstBillable is TRUE, it's not really mandatory. For better readability, please always add the attribute sstBillable.

Customers - Customer - Employees

The sub tree ou=employees,uid=4000001,ou=customers,dc=stoney-cloud,dc=org contains the employees belonging to the reseller Customer Ltd.

People - Person - Session tokens

Using session tokens, when the user logs out, the client sends a logout request to the server. The session token is then removed from LDAP by the server and the client discards the session token.

Special cases:

If the user's password is changed, all session tokens must be removed from LDAP in order to force the user to re-login.
If any attributes are changed which control the user's affiliation (reseller, company, etc), all session tokens must be removed from LDAP in order to force the user to re-login.
Specific attributes:
- sstBelongsToResellerUID
- sstBelongsToCustomerUID
- sstEmployeeOfUID
- sstEmployeeOfUID

In our case, we store the session tokens in a leaf beneath the person (as these tokens are personal).

People - Person - Session tokens example

Below each person entry, we have a tokens sub tree, which stores the session tokens:

dn: ou=tokens,uid=4000002,ou=people,dc=stoney-cloud,dc=org
objectclass: top
objectclass: organizationalUnit
ou: tokens
description: The sub tree for the session tokens of the person with the uid '4000002'.

The following table describes the different attributes:

Attribute	Objectclass	Existence	Mandatory	Description
ou	organizationalUnit	MUST	x	The sub tree containing all the session tokens. For example: `ou: tokens`.
description	organizationalUnit	MAY		The description of the leaf. As this sub tree is created by the stoney API, we don't really need a human readable description. For example: `description: The sub tree for the session tokens of the person with the uid '4000002'.`

Legend:

x: Mandatory in all cases.

Each session token receives its own child-entry to store additional meta data, such as the token's create date, last utilisation date, ... In the example below, the session token sstToken: 2e211493-41e6-4c74-9431-b5d990b177a4 was created on the 13th of April 2021 at 08:10:27 UTC (sstCreationDate: 20210413T081027Z) and two clients have used this token (the first with an IPv4 address, the second with an IPv6 address):

dn: sstToken=2e211493-41e6-4c74-9431-b5d990b177a4,ou=tokens,uid=4000002,ou=people,dc=stoney-cloud,dc=org

The API will make sure, that the amount of registered remote IP addresses and requesting User-Agents doesn't exceed a certain configurable limit (for example: 2). If the limit is exceeded, the session will be invalidated.

The following table describes the different attributes:

Attribute	Objectclass	Existence	Mandatory	Description
sstToken	sstTokenObjectClass	MUST	x	The sub tree containing all the information of a session (creation date, access date, IPv4 or IPv6 address and the clients user agent). The session token has the form of a UUID (Universally Unique Identifier).. For example: `sstToken: 2e211493-41e6-4c74-9431-b5d990b177a4`.
description	sstTokenObjectClass	MAY		The description of the leaf. As this sub tree is created by the stoney API, we don't really need a human readable description. For example: `description: The sub tree for the JSON Web Token with the id '2e211493-41e6-4c74-9431-b5d990b177a4'.`
sstCreationDate	sstTokenObjectClass	MUST	x	The session token creation time (UTC) in the form of `[YYYY][MM][DD]T[hh][mm][ss]Z` according to the ISO 8601 definition. For example: `sstCreationDate: 20210413T081027Z`.
sstClient	sstTokenObjectClass	MUST	x	The multi-valued attribute containing client information. This attribute contains the following information: The access time (UTC) in the form of `[YYYY][MM][DD]T[hh][mm][ss]Z` according to the ISO 8601 definition. The IPv4 or IPv6 address, from which the client has accessed the stoney API. The user agent of the client. This information is separated by spaces: `sstClient: [YYYY][MM][DD]T[hh][mm][ss]Z" "IPv4 or IPv6" "User-Agent"`. For example: `sstClient: 20210413T081027Z 194.176.109.13 Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:85.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/85.0`.
