Here's what I'm hoping to have when I get finished:
1. Tomcat authenticates users against an LDAP repository.
2. Slide authorizes users against an LDAP repository.
3. Slide authorizes groups (or roles) against an LDAP repository.
4. Slide determines group/role membership from user membership in LDAP
groups.
#1 is not an issue with Slide, but I was thinking of configuring Tomcat
to use the SlideRealm and having Slide authenticate against LDAP. This
may not be worth the effort, though.
For #2 - #4, based on my understanding of Slide, I'm going to need to
create a new Store implementation that talks to LDAP.
My questions:
Does anyone see anything I've overlooked (an easier way to do this,
perhaps)?
Has anyone else done something similar that they wouldn't mind
sharing?
Is there any documentation/postings that would help me write a new
Store? What I've found basically says read the source for the default
stores.
