Hi,

After over a day of looking, and googling, I found no document or mail, or web page describing how to go along to configure CPS to use an LDAP
directory.

Is there such a resource?

There are some comments (in french, that I tried to understand via Babel Fish translator) about using CPSUserFolder or LDAPUserGroupsFolder, and still is not clear to me if I should use CPSUserFolder (with some other
product or is self sufficient with LDAP) or LDAPUserGroupsFolder.

My requirement would be to use an LDAP directory I already have, where
users and groups are already defined.

What is the recommended/supported way of doing this?

And, how do I set it up?

I have managed to configure Plone with LDAPUserFolder. Is the procedure
similar with CPS?

Any help (or redirection to the appropriate resource) would be greatly
appreciated.

Best regards,
Gusti.

Hi,

I have done the following:

- Installed the LDAPUserGroupsFolder (ver 2.9.3 downloaded from nuxeo svn), in
portal instance Products directory
- Deleted my portal site's acl_users folder
- Added an LDAPUserGroupsFolder at the root of the CPS site
This in effect created a "acl_users (LDAP User Groups Folder) " folder in the
root of the CPS site.

- Configured the "acl_users (LDAP User Groups Folder) " "Configure" tab, much
like the LDAPUserFolder product.

- When I search for Users, thru the "Users" tab, search, I get the list of my
LDAP users. OK.
- When I search for Groups, thru the "Groups" tab, search, I get the list of
LDAP Groups, OK.
- I had no Roles yet in my LDAP server, so I created one. OK. No problem so far.

- Then, I logged in to the CPS portal, with the superuser of the portal (created during setup of the Instance), and I am able to search for the users in the Directory (Members, Groups, and Roles). They get listed, when searched for.

... But, I can not log in as one of these users. It does not authenticate,
apparently.

What piece am I missing, in this configuration process?

Do your users have the Member role ? It's mandatory.

Probably not related to the problems, but as I've said time and again, if you install LDAPUserGroupsFolder, you MUST install CMFLDAP too, and replace the portal_memberdata object with its version.
