Hi, there are a number of ways to do this:
a) You may use midgard to authenticate against a windows domain using
midgard + samba 3.0 (now in rc). b) I'm writing a system to integrate midgard and ldap on the app-level.
c) There is work happening that will make it possible to use different
datasources in midgard, amongst them, ldap for users and groups. This
will not be done before December I think (I do not know).
Unfortunately , a) our network admin will not approve samba 3.x for use on network at this time b) need it now c) need it now
So what I did was to turn off all athentication in midgard and use mod_auth_ldap apache module which I found here: http://www.muquit.com/muquit/software/mod_auth_ldap/mod_auth_ldap.html
There is another module called ldap_auth from http://www.rudedog.org/auth_ldap/ that looks like
an inactive project. I never got that one working.
mod_auth_ldap however, works like a dream and the docs are very good.
I use it in between <location> tags in the apache config and it protects all my midgard/aegir pages. It's a hack, and user still have to use midgard's database to log into aegir or whatever admin you use but it works for me.
