[rt-users] Doubt in LDAP Overlay contributed code in RT

[Ahalya_Nathan at mudnebr.com]

Hi all,

Presently, we have Active Directory(AD) installed in our machines and the 
logging into these machines is after authentication from the Active 
Directory databases. Also our RT system is running on linux platform. Our 
machines are on Windows platform.

The  login to RT system is authenticated  through the "Users" table. 
Instead of doing this , we would like to carry the authentication from the 
AD and got to know about the LDAP overlay code.
The problem right now is since AD is window based, could the contributed 
code still be used to authenticate users because when i did some research 
i found out that OpenLDAP server is the preferred system for Linux 
platforms.

It will be of great help if anyone could suggest any other solution to go 
past this problem
