this is what i want to do. I may have to authenticate a user based on some attributes not present in the access request. For example expiration date,time etc for which i need to access the time and date of the system and this is not present in the request. Also I need a module (this could be checkval) to bring up the services (could be anything like notepad,a message box etc) from the LDAP before sending the authentication to the user. For this the module has to look into the LDAP entry of the user find the services and bring it up along with the network connection. Hope Iam clear this time.
