[rt-users] Best method to authenticate with AD
Hi I need to let RT authenticate users through AD. We have a number of levels in our AD structure to separate users on geographical and departmental reasons. On the best practice website I have read that there are three ways: 1. Apache Authentication 2. Mike Peachey's RT:Authen::ExternalAuth extension 3. Jim Meyer's User_Local Overlay(Deprecated) Which of the three ways had work for you well and would you recommend?

Hello Mike Thank you for your advice. I have decided to go with RT:Authen::ExternalAuth for AD authentication.

Jim Meyer's User_Local Overlay(Deprecated) I recommend 2 over 3 because 2 is a complete rewrite of 3 and Jim is happy that 2 deprecates 3. As for 1, I've never done it, but it depends on whether you just want access authentication, or whether you want user information to be loaded from an external source. -- Kind Regards, __ Mike Peachey, IT Tel: +44 114 281 2655 Fax: +44 114 281 2951 Jennic Ltd, Furnival Street, Sheffield, S1 4QT, UK Comp Reg No: 3191371 - Registered In England http://www.jennic.com __ ___ http://lists.bestpractical.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/rt-users Community help: http://wiki.bestpractical.com Commercial support: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Discover RT's hidden secrets with RT Essentials from O'Reilly Media.
