That's what I wanted to accomplish when I first approached the subject. When the idea hit the mailing list, it ballooned into building an LDAP component into OFBiz, which made it too complicated for me to implement.

Having our users authenticate to our LDAP server is something I am still interested in. I would really appreciate any tips!

Not at this time.  The user authenticates using their domain password stored in 
Active Directory. We skip OFBiz password verification when the application is 
configured to use AD, but continue to use the OFBiz security for resource 
authorization.  If the user is logging into the application for the very first 
time, we do self-provision them by setting them up in the OFBiz database with 
default groups and roles automatically.

  Chris,

Does your implementation keep the OFBiz password synchronized with Active 
Directory?

David,

Yes, you can post the document. We're still interested in moving
forward on this at some point - just need to convince the client. We
have implemented a slimmed down version that overrides the login
services to use Active Directory for authentication.

I did some analysis for Integral a while back for possible ways of
doing this, mostly on a tool level. If they are okay with it I
wouldn't mind posting the resulting document.

Hi.
Has anybody integrated ofbiz with LDAP or has plans to do so?
It seemed like there was some discussion about a year ago.
