Hello
We have started using ldap to do authentication, however the corporate
LDAP server doesn't support groups so everyone ends up in the default
group. Since we can't convince the corporate LDAP group to include the
groups property, I was wondering if it made sense to add a configuration
option to the ldap auth to allow it to 'ignore', 'replace' or 'append'
the groups results of an ldap search with the group values for the user
from the users.auth.php file (if any)? That way the wiki could use the
LDAP service for user/password maintenance (the fewer passwords the
better!) but allow flexibility in creating groups, especially for
assigning ACL permissions.
Thoughts? Thanks for your time.
Steven
