Hi

I have a user login page which has a user name and password implemeted
using cocoon CForm.

I problem is to authenticate this user's entered credentials against a
LDAP server. As I understand there are 2 approaches we can follow

1. Use cocoons LDAP Transformer.
2. Use custom java-script code to do the authentication using flowscript.

I do not have any knowledge about the LDAP Transformer, as to how it
works, but going by the documentation, the LDAP Transformer just
executes the LDAP query file. But there is lot more to do once I get
the result from LDAP Transformer. I need to store some values in to
the session(This I am doing using flowscript), if ldap authentication
is successful, redirect to some page, or else show some error and
redirect to the login page and lot more.

All these can be easily done in the second approach, but this involves
writing lot of java code for authentication.

My question is WHICH IS THE BEST APPROACH TO DO LDAP AUTHENTICATION,
using LDAP Transformer or using custom built java-script code

THanks in advance

Sanket.
