While configuring ownCloud to use LDAP as user database we've found a lot of issues with sharing and LDAP. Here are some thoughts. We've made tests two months ago using git version, so maybe something's changed since then?
- Authenticating against LDAP does not create the owncloud equivalent of a user account, and therefore sharing with permissions is not working, - It's referring to group members by uid instead of oc_users.id, so name changes become difficult, - It's referring to groups by gid instead of oc_groups.id (it doesn't have an id field for oc_groups nor oc_users tables, in fact) the oc_principals table is also referring to the uid text instead of the local account id, - It should use the user's bind credentials, and not the service bind credentials, - It attempts to create a full list of usernames for auto-completion, which it shouldn't do for lists of usernames can get rather large. -- Aleksander 'A.L.E.C' Machniak LAN Management System Developer [http://lms.org.pl] Roundcube Webmail Developer [http://roundcube.net] --------------------------------------------------- PGP: 19359DC1 @@ GG: 2275252 @@ WWW: http://alec.pl _______________________________________________ Owncloud mailing list [email protected] https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/owncloud
