um...you did post to the list. :)

ldap is a different animal.  i've never really used it for authentication,
besides Win2K's ACLs being LDAP-compliant.

you're probably going to want to look into Advanced Security.  it can use an
LDAP database for suthentication.  of course, it's a BEAST to setup.

authentication


Chris,

Sorry to respond to you this way.  I subscribed to this list only today.  I
am looking for help on authenticating
users against an ldap directory but have not quite gotten there yet and I
cannot see how to post to the list.  Any
pointers on how to post to the list would be appreciated.  Then I will be
more descriptive in my question.

Thanks,

Jerre
