Re: [Acegisecurity-developer] ldap & LdapPasswordAuthenticationDao

[Robert r. Sanders]

I'll try and get what I have checked back in; I've been working (in little tiny bits at a time) to re-work the LDAP DAO so that it supports bind + search instead of the current "bind all until success" version. Joseph Dane wrote: Greetings - I'd like to start using acegi to authenticate against LDAP, and I've found LdapPasswordAuthenticationDao, which looks very nice. However, it's not quite what's needed here, since we need to first do a bind/search to find a DN given a username. I was just about to start hacking away at LdapPasswordAuthenticationDao, but I notice that class LdapSupport seems to have some bits (managerUser, managerPassword, etc.) which might be meant to help support this. I also notice that this class was just checked in a week or so ago. Has there been any work done on this that hasn't been checked in? Should I go ahead and work with what's in there currently? -- Robert r. Sanders Chief Technologist iPOV (334) 821-5412 www.ipov.net
