libnfldap
=========

A Python module to generate IPTables and IPSet rules from LDAP records.
See example.py for a demo.

Example
=======

The script at `example_allusers.py` will build iptables and ipset rules for all
users in LDAP. You can provide the script an ldap filter as argv[1] to limit the
scope.

```bash
$ time python example_allusers.py '(uid=jvehent)'
IPTables rules written in /tmp/tmpT7JgOW
IPSet rules written in /tmp/tmpJYtWM5

real 0m0.605s
user 0m0.061s
sys 0m0.014s
```

`example.py` does something similar but for a single user identified by its
uidNumber (unix user ID).

```bash
$ python example.py 2297
#Generating rules for user ID 1664
#====== ACL details ======
jvehent has access to .....
```
