Any ideas how I might be able to validate active directory
username
password from within unidata?
I'd encrypt the data in BASIC, pass it to a windows box, and
execute an EXE that just does the authentication and returns a
yes or no (also encrypted to deter corruption in
Further clarification of the requirements would be useful. When and how
often do you want to do this? Do you want to use an API or using the
'shell' okay? Is it to be used on Windows UNIX servers? Does need to
work on UD UV? Do you want to 'spend' any money to get the 'perfect'
or quick 'n'

Contact br...@cross.net.au and see if he is still selling the LDAP
interface I wrote for him.
This will let you use a unibasic subroutine to query active directory
including validating a username

Hi,
You can call DLLs from UniData on Windows with the CALLC function. It's
in the Developing UniBasic Applications manual under Linking Programs
with UniData. I think there's a Universe equivalent, but as I don't
use UV, I've never needed to check. This links dynamically, though -

This brings up a question: Does anyone know if we can link a
C++ or .NET DLL into the UD or UV executables? Maybe call
via a user exit or some other mechanism directly from BASIC?
Shelling out is very inelegant, slow, and can be insecure.
You can link C code to UniVerse using GCI,

What platform is UD running on . I assume *nix? Do you need to do
this, or is it enough that the host OS has validated logon credentials
against AD?
