Hi, How to configure ldap certificate-based authentication? Could not found in doc.
Some fields are different from proxmox ve ldap configuration.
For example cert directive.

Example from pve
Code:
ldap: name
    base_dn dc=example,dc=com
    server1 ldap.google.com
    user_attr uid
    cert /etc/ldap/ldap.crt
    certkey /etc/ldap/ldap.key
    mode ldaps
    port 636
    sync-defaults-options enable-new=1,remove-vanished=entry;properties,scope=both
    verify 1

But this config is not supported by proxmox-backup-manager.
How to configure ? which directives are supported?
Read doc from https://pbs.proxmox.com/docs/configuration-files.html#domains-cfg

I see that user_attr also change to user-attr.
when i add cert i got error.
Error: parsing '/etc/proxmox-backup/domains.cfg' failed: line 8 - unknown property 'cert'

Hi,

(client-)certificate-based authentication is unfortunately not (yet) supported in Proxmox Backup Server, AFAIK.

Some fields are different from proxmox ve ldap configuration.
As for this; Proxmox VE and Backup Server do not share a common codebase, so configuration differences are a given - and users are not expected to simply copy configuration files between two different products anyway.

You are welcome to create a feature request in our bugtracker though, so it doesn't get lost: https://bugzilla.proxmox.com/!
