Hello CAS learners and Masters,

Greetings !!

*Summary: *
I need some help/pointers in making CAS to read the passwords from
"displayName" attribute (in LDAP) for password while authenticating.

*Detail:*
We know that CAS server authenticates username and passwords from its
default attributes of LDAP.
And for password the default value is "userPassword" present in LDAP.

But, in our application we have all our passwords stored in another LDAP
attribute named as "displayName".

Now after integrating CAS with LDAP we are not able to get the users
authenticated. Because, CAS by default search for value userPassword
attribte of LDAP. Since that filed do not contain the password it fails to
authenticate.

*What we want:*
Pointers around how can we make CAS to pick up the password from
"displayName" instead of "userPassword" LDAP attribute. So the
authentication succeeds.

Please advise me as this is a major concern and a bottle neck for out
project.

Regards,
Rahul
