My current project uses LDAP indirectly: we use the rubycas-client library which speaks CAS (Yale's Central Authenticity Service) to a CAS server which speaks LDAP. If you have need for a central single sign-on service, that's probably the best way to do it. But if you don't need that, you're probably best off avoiding the extra layer.
rubycas-client is pretty easy to wire into a Hobo app, just use the ruby on rails instructions straight out of the box. OTOH, If you need to do CAS proxying, definitely give me a shout, and I can save you some pain. cheers, Bryan paron wrote: > I really need to wire around the standard authentication.
