LDAP Authentication is basically used for people to have a server (Microsoft or Novell) many schools, colleges, university's, company's, LDAP stores the user's account details i.e. username, full name, password, address, folders etc
Basically LDAP Authentication Plugins will allow you to use your users details on your Microsoft or Novell Server for user authentication insted of your MySQL (etc) database. Would manly ideal for schools, colleges, unis, or companys who want to run a forum, but use the user's computer logon details to logon to the forum |
Does a user still need to register? Or do they automatically get ability to login from existing LDAP credentials?
|
a user can authenticate with the existing ldap user data. no need for registering with vbulletin.

includes/ldapAuth/controller.php line 104 shows:
Code:
verify_authentication($vbulletin->GPC['vb_login_username'], $vbulletin->GPC['cookieuser'], true); Code:
function verify_authentication($username, $password, $md5password, $md5password_utf, $cookieuser, $send_cookies) Code:
Warning: Missing argument 4 for verify_authentication(), called in /var/www/includes/ldapAuth/controller.php on line 94 and defined in /includes/functions_login.php on line 134 |
Do you have LDAP support in php?
|
Quote:
The problem as documented about is that the verify_authentication function is expecting 6 variables , and we are only sending 3 in the controller.php. Should we just send dummy values for the password varibles? |
Not that I'm any expert on the subject but password is more than likely required.
|
In step 5, when I am trying to activate the plugin from admin control panel, what do I enter in the field "Plugin PHP Code" ?
|
Turn on the hooks system in the admincp, it should be on if you've imported any other plugins or products.
|
if I goto Admincp >> Plugins & products >> Add new plugin:
I specify: Product: vBulletin Hook location: ldap_login_hook Title:Ldap plugin Execution Order: 5 Plugin PHP Code: <<I dont know what ?>> Plugin is Active: Yes I see this to be the only way of activating the plugin, but since I dont have the Plugin PHP Code, it says "Please Complete All Required Fields" Thanks for the help ! |
