We're running a production version on Webmail Edition 1.2.x and
have gotten the usernames to be forced to lowercase using the
_imp_hook_vinfo hook.
I've installed a test version of Webmail Edition 4.0.x for a
simulated upgrade of the production system. I see there is a way
to force the username to lowercase for the authentication, but I
am uncertain how to get this to work. I've tried uncommenting the
section of code (example #2) in the horde/config/hooks.php for
authusername, but wondered if there is some other configuration
flag I need to set to enable this functionality.
Do usernames need to be all lowercase for authentication purposes?
Yes.
If so, you want the 'preauthenticate' hook. See
horde/config/hooks.php for more info.
Thanks.
authusername is used to convert between an authentication username
and a Horde username. That doesn't sound like what you want.
This is not what I want to do.
For documentation purposes, here's what I did to get this to work:
1. In the horde/imp/config/hooks.php file, I added the following function:
This was copied from the hooks.php.dist file
public function preauthenticate($userId, $credentials)
{
return true;
}
2. Copied horde/config/hooks.php.dist to horde/config/hooks.local.php
3. In the horde/config/hooks.local.php file, uncommented the
"preauthenticate" function.
4. Within the "preauthenticate" function, added the following code to
force the username to lowercase:
return array(
'userId' => Horde_String::lower($userId),
'credentials' => $credentials
);
Hopefully this saves some folks some time in the future.
