We are in the process of setting up a wiki service for our organization using MediaWiki. It is important that we be able to authenticate via Active Directory rather than users have to set up separate ids on the wikis. There is a product, Plexcel, which does this integration for x86 Linux, but it is not available for zLinux. The company has no plans to port to zLinux unless there is a zLinux simulator that can run on x86_64 or i386. My questions are: * (1) does anyone know of such a simulator? * (2) failing that, does anyone know of a comparable product to Plexcel that runs on zLinux; * (3) failing that, is there a product which provides similar integration with an LDAP server? Thanks.
1) Yes, but you don't want to go there.... 2-3) As long as PHP is built with LDAP support, I think you should be able to do LDAP auth over TLS/SSL to your AD controller and have it work fine. Take a look at: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:LDAP_Authentication/AD_Configuration_Examples Adam ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390
