Thank you Mike for your answer. I started this topic, because i have
an assignment at my Faculty, which requires connection between Django
and an LDAP (assistant insisted on 389ds). I installed Django, enabled
admin, logged in through Firefox. I can't make up my mind, do i need
to connect Django and LDAP like so that all users from LDAP can login
through e.g. localhost:8000/admin, or do i need to make a
register/login page, where users from LDAP server can login and onlu
admin can login from admin page? The second is mpre logical to me, but
i don't know, because i am new to Django and Python.
I believe that you will write a (small) middleware function which will
be added to the tuple PASSWORD_HASHERS in your settings.py. The
middleware will take the username and password already provided by the
user from an existing login page and then access your LDAP server for
the authentication.
You can probably find example code for that middleware function in
Django; I needed to use existing Drupal (ugh) passwords for a content
conversion to Mezzanine and found an example, probably on django-snippets.
