you can have Jetspeed authenticate a user onto a web application where the user exists within the LDAP if you configure Jetspeed to use the LDAP, I have this working with Drupal and Jetspeed-2.1dev .
I find it the best method for integrating applications, especially the web apps support LDAP. On 5/7/07, Dennis Dam <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Hi, is it possible to perform automatic logon, using LDAP authentication ? So the portal will automatically detect the client's LDAP user name, and perform a login in the background. Is there any support for this in Jetspeed? I heard NTLM could be used for that, but can't seem to find that code in Jetspeed-2 (found a reference in Jetspeed-1 though). At the moment, I have 2 alternatives for automatic login via LDAP authentication: 1. using an ActiveX control, effectively restricting the browser client to IE only. Some security settings have to be made in every browser on the intranet. This works, but I consider this an "hack", and in my experience leads to a lot of questions from the users. 2. Using LDAP via the webserver (Apache / Tomcat). any tips would be very welcome !
