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

[Nathan Oyler]

It works perfectly fine with AD and was very easy to add. List archives
was what I used to figure it out, I'd suggest that.

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

 


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
