ldap?

Post by RushB »

Will LDAP be supported in the next release? I was wondering if phpBB and the new portal might be able to work with Active Directory on an intranet.

Later,

[quote="http://www.phpbb.com/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=88651"]A new plug-in based architecture has been introduced. This allows for authenticating users via the built-in database, LDAP, Apache or any other method (only those three are supported at present). You could use this system for example to introduce the recently annouced "global authentication" mechanism for cross-application data sharing. Alternatively a simple SOAP module could be defined for directly sharing data. The potential is quite significant. [/quote]
