[opencms-dev] LDAP integration with 6.X

[Hossfeld, Felix]

Hello!
 
I'm also interested in this project. I have experience developing JAAS-Modules. It is a good and flexible framework and I would like to dvelop a module which also to use a JAAS context for authentication and authorization. Using this approach we could use alsmost any source of credentials to authenticate against.
 
The main problem I see is mapping the more general roles from a JAAS module to the special semantics of OpenCMS - like the unique user identifier. Has anybody a good idea how to do this?
 
Regards
 
Felix Hoßfeld

I would appreciate such a project on sourceforge and I will certainly contribute to it. I have some expirience with integration of ldap in commercial cms and with the user management in opencms. In the past such an integration was never an essential need in my projects, but its surly nice to have it available. 

kind regards

	As the time passing, there will be more and more commercial know-how become public. No one can stop this trend. Is there anybody would contribute an LDAP module to this list?
	
	If no contribution available, I'll try to apply a project in sourceforge.net on building a module integrating OpenCMS and LDAP loosely.
