      SYNOPSIS

      couchbase-cli setting-saslauthd [--cluster <url>] [--username <user>] [--password <password>]
          [--client-cert <path>] [--client-cert-password <password>] [--client-key <path>]
          [--client-key-password <password>] [--admins <admins_list>]

      DESCRIPTION

      This command is only available for clusters running Enterprise Edition on GNU/Linux.

      This command allows users to enable SASL on their cluster as well as add administrator and read-only administrator SASL users to their cluster.

      OPTIONS

      -c
      --cluster

      Specifies the hostname of a node in the cluster. See the HOST FORMATS section for more information on specifying a hostname.

      -u
      --username <username>

      Specifies the username of the user executing the command. If you do not have a user account with permission to execute the command then it will fail with an unauthorized error.

      -p
      --password <password>

      Specifies the password of the user executing the command. If you do not have a user account with permission to execute the command then it will fail with an unauthorized error. If this argument is specified, but no password is given then the command will prompt the user for a password through non-echoed stdin. You may also specify your password by using the environment variable CB_REST_PASSWORD.

      --client-cert <path>

      The path to a client certificate used to authenticate when connecting to a cluster. May be supplied with --client-key as an alternative to the --username and --password flags. See the CERTIFICATE AUTHENTICATION section for more information.

      --client-cert-password <password>

      The password for the certificate provided to the --client-cert flag, when using this flag, the certificate/key pair is expected to be in the PKCS#12 format. See the CERTIFICATE AUTHENTICATION section for more information.

      --client-key <path>

      The path to the client private key whose public key is contained in the certificate provided to the --client-cert flag. May be supplied with --client-cert as an alternative to the --username and --password flags. See the CERTIFICATE AUTHENTICATION section for more information.

      --client-key-password <password>

      The password for the key provided to the --client-key flag, when using this flag, the key is expected to be in the PKCS#8 format. See the CERTIFICATE AUTHENTICATION section for more information.

      --admins <admins_list>

      A list of SASL users who should have administrator privileges on this cluster. This list should be comma separated if multiple users are being added.

      --roadmins <ro_admin_list>

      A list of SASL users who should have read-only administrator privileges on this cluster. This list should be comma separated if multiple users are being added.

      --enabled <1|0>

      Enables or disables SASL on this cluster. To enable SASL set this option to "1". To disable SASL set this parameter to "0".

      --default <default>

      Specifies the default role for SASL users who have not been explicitly been added to the cluster. This option may be set to "admins", "ro_admins", or "none". If this option is set to "admins" then all SASL users not explicitly add to this cluster have administrator privileges. If this option is set to "roadmins" then all SASL users not explicitly add to this cluster have read-only administrator privileges. If this option is set to "none" then all SASL users not explicitly add to this cluster will have no access. This option default to "none".

      HOST FORMATS

      When specifying a host for the couchbase-cli command the following formats are expected:

      • couchbase://<addr> or couchbases://<addr>

      • http://<addr>:<port> or https://<addr>:<port>

      • <addr>:<port>

      It is recommended to use the couchbase://<addr> or couchbases://<addr> format for standard installations. The other formats allow an option to take a port number which is needed for non-default installations where the admin port has been set up on a port other that 8091 (or 18091 for https).

      CERTIFICATE AUTHENTICATION (MTLS AUTHENTICATION)

      This tool supports authenticating against a Couchbase Cluster by using certificate based authentication (mTLS authentication). To use certificate based authentication a certificate/key must be supplied, there a currently multiple ways this may be done.

      PEM ENCODED CERTIFICATE/KEY

      An unencrypted PEM encoded certificate/key may be supplied by using: - --client-cert <path> - --client-key <path>

      The file passed to --client-cert must contain the client certificate, and an optional chain required to authenticate the client certificate.

      The file passed to --client-key must contain at most one private key, the key can be in one of the following formats: - PKCS#1 - PKCS#8

      Currently, only the following key types are supported: - RSA - DSA

      PEM ENCODED CERTIFICATE/PEM OR DER ENCRYPTED PKCS#8 KEY

      An encrypted PKCS#8 formatted key may be provided using: - --client-cert <path> - --client-key <path> - --client-key-password <password>

      The file passed to --client-cert must contain the client certificate, and an optional chain required to authenticate the client certificate.

      Currently, only the following key types are supported: - RSA - DSA

      ENCRYPTED PKCS#12 CERTIFICATE/KEY

      An encrypted PKCS#12 certificate/key may be provided using: - --client-cert <path> - --client-cert-password <password>

      The file passed to --client-cert must contain the client certificate and exactly one private key. It may also contain the chain required to authenticate the client certificate.

      Currently, only the following key types are supported: - RSA - DSA

      EXAMPLES

      To enable SASL on a cluster run the following command.

      $ couchbase-cli setting-saslauthd -c 192.168.1.5 --username Administrator \
       --password password --enabled 1

      To add users alice and barry as Administrators and users clair and daniel as Read-Only Administrators run the following command.

      $ couchbase-cli setting-saslauthd -c 192.168.1.5 --username Administrator \
       --password password --enabled 1 --admins alice,barry \
       --roadmins clair,daniel

      To enable SASL and allow all SASL users to have Administrator access run the following command.

      $ couchbase-cli setting-saslauthd -c 192.168.1.5 --username Administrator \
       --password password --enabled 1 --default admins

      ENVIRONMENT AND CONFIGURATION VARIABLES

      CB_REST_USERNAME

      Specifies the username to use when executing the command. This environment variable allows you to specify a default argument for the -u/--username argument on the command line.

      CB_REST_PASSWORD

      Specifies the password of the user executing the command. This environment variable allows you to specify a default argument for the -p/--password argument on the command line. It also allows the user to ensure that their password are not cached in their command line history.

      CB_CLIENT_CERT

      The path to a client certificate used to authenticate when connecting to a cluster. May be supplied with CB_CLIENT_KEY as an alternative to the CB_USERNAME and CB_PASSWORD variables. See the CERTIFICATE AUTHENTICATION section for more information.

      CB_CLIENT_CERT_PASSWORD

      The password for the certificate provided to the CB_CLIENT_CERT variable, when using this variable, the certificate/key pair is expected to be in the PKCS#12 format. See the CERTIFICATE AUTHENTICATION section for more information.

      CB_CLIENT_KEY

      The path to the client private key whose public key is contained in the certificate provided to the CB_CLIENT_CERT variable. May be supplied with CB_CLIENT_CERT as an alternative to the CB_USERNAME and CB_PASSWORD variables. See the CERTIFICATE AUTHENTICATION section for more information.

      CB_CLIENT_KEY_PASSWORD

      The password for the key provided to the CB_CLIENT_KEY variable, when using this variable, the key is expected to be in the PKCS#8 format. See the CERTIFICATE AUTHENTICATION section for more information.
