NethServer Version: your_versionNethServer release 7.4.1708 (Final)
Module: Account Provider

Hi,

I need to configure Remote LDAP in nethserver account provider. I think Remote ldap and joining domain are the same fields mention in the account provider. I need to specify only remote ldap for authentication.

I don’t know maybe Remote ldap and joining domain are same, explain me what is remote ldap and joining domain.

i need specify only IP address in the web proxy settings not FQDN (domain name)

Please have a look at the following link:
http://docs.nethserver.org/en/v7/accounts.html#bind-to-a-remote-ldap-server

What do you have? An ActiveDirectory Server or Open-LDAP? Please give us some more information.

We need Open-LDAP configuration. Currently we are using joining domain authentication. when we enable web proxy the internet goes very slow, some times not working. The authentication takes to long to verify. ( FQDN using in web proxy settings )

So how to change the current domain join to open ldap or is there any option to change in command line using squid config file.

For me with a local AD it looks like this at squid.conf

#
# 20acl_00_portscustom
#

# Authentication required


# GSSAPI auth in ADS mode
auth_param negotiate program /usr/lib64/squid/negotiate_kerberos_auth -i
auth_param negotiate children 10
auth_param negotiate keep_alive on

I think you could change these lines to connect to an OpenLDAP.
Please have a look here:

Please be aware that nethserver uses a template-system, so create a custom template to change these settings.
