It really depends on your environment, I can't tell what would work for you. Note that you don't need the LDAP plugin to authenticate against an ActiveDirectory. Authentication is done w/ Apache, and although it can use the same ActiveDirectory, this step does not involve the LDAP plugin The LDAP plugin is useful for two purposes: * to manage the groups of users in LDAP: for example, your ActiveDirectory contains group of users, and you want to grant Trac permissions for these groups. * to store all the Trac permissions in the LDAP directory, the rationale for this is to use an existing LDAP management tool to administrate Trac permissions, rather than relying on the Trac tools. The LDAP plugin is useless if you simply want to use the LDAP directory to authenticate users. As an example, we're using Trac at my office and Apache is set up to use the LDAP enterprise directory for authentication: all the users who are subscribed to a LDAP-managed ML are granted access to the Trac server. The LDAP plugin is not installed on this server, as LDAP is just about authentication here. > My problem is to enable active directory users to access trac system as > valid users without entering any additional passwords. Just that! As long as the HTTP authentication realm is the same for both Trac and your IDE, it should work. Passwords are about authentication, not permissions.
