James,

This depends on what level of integration you need between LDAP and
Slide.

To get *authentication* working, you need to configure your app server
to authenticate users against LDAP. If you're using Tomcat 5 have a look
at
http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.0-doc/realm-howto.html#JNDIRealm.
I was never able to get the JNDIRealm working with Tomcat 4, but it's
been shipping with Tomcat since 4.0.6 (I believe) so it's supposed to
work. If you're using a different app server you'll have to check the
documentation for that server.

If you need Slide to get its list of users from LDAP (so that you don't
have to add them manually) you'll either need to turn auto-create-users
on in the Slide configuration, or use the JNDIPrincipalStore (have to
get it from CVS) for the /users node.

If you need Slide to get its role information from LDAP you'll need the
JNDIPrincipalStore (again, have to get it from CVS) for the /roles
node.

Hello,
  I am new to slide, and am looking to see if it would be useful at my

university.

  We use ldap for logins and I got ldap authentication working with 
webdav, but I don't know how to do it for slide, as I don't know how to

work around the domains.

  Is there an example of using ldap for authentication for slide
somewhere?

  Thank you.
