Christian Helmbold commented on JSPWIKI-517:
--------------------------------------------

Better than support specific auth systems would be to support a general auth 
service like the Central Authentication System (CAS). It does not only hide 
concrete auth services but also supports single-sing-on with tickets. See 
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JSPWIKI-604

> provide an LDAPUserDatabase (part of core JSPWiki)

> Currently there are only two choices of UserDatabase implementations in core 
> JSPWiki: XMLUserDatabase and JDBCUserDatabase.
> There seem to be a bunch of JSPWiki users out there using LDAP as the User 
> Registry, in most cases a container managed implementation, which has some 
> limitations.
> This issue asks for an LDAPUserDatabase that extends AbstractUserDatabase and 
> should better integrate with JSPWiki.
> For instance, we should be able to not only read the LDAP, but also write to 
> the LDAP.
> Like JDBCUserDatabase, LDAPUserDatabase is better suitable for larger scale 
> implementations where running multiple wiki's using the same LDAP user 
> registry.
> Please add any other requirements here too !
