Integrating Okta, Jira Cloud and OpenLDAP on CentOS/RedHat
Hello,
We are currently investigating the migration of our on-premise Jira-software 8.20.15 to the cloud.
One of the problems is with the user directory. Our users and passwords are stored in an OpenLDAP database
that runs on a linux (CentOS-7) machine. Atlassian suggests using Okta to connect to OpenLDAP.
In the Okta documentation I find mainly instructions to install the Active directory agent (a windows .exe).
Is there anyone with experience connecting Okta to an OpenLDAP directory on a RedHat/CentOS server and connecting the
other side to Jira Cloud? And if so, do you have some pointers on installing and configurating this?
Thanks very much for your time.
