AFAICT, mod_ldap lets Apache use an LDAP directory for authentication information instead of a .htpasswd file. So if I'm reading right, fossil sync wouldn't need to know how to do LDAP authentication, the client would need to do HTTP Basic Auth. And the fossil server would need to trust or be configurable to trust the REMOTE_USER env variable for sync as well as www interface. From memory and packet sniffing, it looks like fossil currently uses its own authentication protocol when syncing. You can test this with basic Apache .htaccess/.htpasswd access controls--no LDAP needed. -- Joshua Paine LetterBlock: Web applications built with joy http://letterblock.com/ 301-576-1920 _______________________________________________ fossil-users mailing list fossil-users@lists.fossil-scm.org http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users
