I am in the process of migrating off of an Exchange 2003 server onto Google Apps for your Domain. One of the features that would be most desirable to have is for the users to have the same userid and password that they have for the rest of the network resources (i.e. I want them to authenticate against the active directory).
So far I have been able to surmise that I have two choices: the LDAP sync tool (http://code.google.com/p/google-apps-for-your-domain-ldap- sync/) and / or the use of an SSO solution using SAML (http:// code.google.com/p/google-apps-sso-sample/). It appears that the LDAP sync tool will do exactly what I want except that it won't synchronize passwords from the Active Directory (it does have the ability to upload passwords but it can't suck them out of the Active Direcotry). I have also gotten the ASP .NET sample SSO solution working and it appears that it will do everything I need except that users who need IMAP or POP access will not be able to use it. So here are my questions: 1) Does anyone know how to get either clear text passwords or password hashes out of the Active Directory or does anyone know of any other free solution (other than the LDAP sync tool) that can get passwords out of the Active Directory for uploading to Google? 2) Does anyone know how to make it so that a users who need IMAP or POP access can be forced to use the same user id and password that they would when logging in via SAML? 3) Does anyone know of any other free solution(s) other than the two I mentioned above that will accomplish the same task? Thanks in advance for any ideas. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Apps APIs" group.
