In case you aren't already aware, you'll need CF 4.5.x to use SLDAP. I've
successfully implemented both secure and insecure LDAP connections to NDS 5,
not sure about other versions. I seriously suggest only using the secure
method, otherwise you'll open up your entire Directory. If I remember
correctly, the LDAP interface defaults to requiring a secure connection.

Are you using the NDS/LDAP option of "allow clear text passwords"? If not
you will likely have to use secure LDAP with a certificate for the LDAP
gateway.

I do query LDAP from CF but have not autenticated to it yet although plan to
in the near future.

With native CF capability you'll have to use CFLDAP to query NDS' LDAP
interface directly. This doesn't allow you to use NDS as your AS repository
but, it's better than nothing. You could try hand building the schema in
NDS. Another option is to use native OS authentication/authorization but,
have that redirected to NDS. Like using Client32 for NT.

Yes, it's the two things I hate the most: Novell, and Advanced Security....

But alas I must authenticate users. I've got advanced security setup to
authenticate off of LDAP. It fails if you don't enter a valid user name, but
it doesn't seem to care what password you type in.

Has anybody figured out how to authenticate NDS users? Surely it's been
done.

Thanks!
