--------------------------------
Summary: Have database user-auth as fallback for LDAP
Key: MRM-1721
URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRM-1721
Project: Archiva
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Users/Security
Affects Versions: 1.4-M3
Reporter: Sascha Vogt
Priority: Minor
It would be really helpful to have a "chain" of authentication modules, where
if the first one fails a second one is queried.
The main use-case here is if one has LDAP user auth configured (typical
corporate environment), but also needs a few technical users (like a Jenkins
instance) which are not in the corporate LDAP.
A side benefit for that is, that one can hard-code a "backup-administrator"
which can be used, if one accidentally breaks the LDAP configuration or if the
LDAP isn't available at all.
