LDAP users
Hi people,
we need to choose a cms and lenya is one of our options. We need to
connect it to a LDAP directory to retrieve the users but we don't know
how to do it. Anybody knows a good link where to look for it? Thx in
advanced.

Yes, they are. But it depends on the schema you are using in your
LDAP. You can configure most (if not all) things in the properties
file. If it does not adapt to your LDAP settings it is a bug and
should be fixed.

You probably have to talk with the one who is managing the LDAP server.

Afaik at the moment the only desription is in the README, the comments
in the properties file and in the Javadocs of LDAPUser.java.

We also use LDPA for our users and all works well. We only had problems if
the configuration of the ldap server within ldap.properties have been
wrong or if we did not use the appropraiate .keystore and CACertificate.
By the wya, you can find a short explanation whithin the README file in
config/ac/passwd.

Apart of this, something else is necesary to connect to a ldap?¿

PD.- Sorry if the questions are so simple (well, stupid) but in my
university we need to choose a CMS and at this moment we have 7
installed and i cannot take a deep look to all of then.
If anybody is interested the ones we more options are:
Tamino/Turcana (Software AG), opencms, lenya, plone

lenya can do it. the default publication doesn't have it implemented in
the GUI though. for an example of an implementation, download the
university publication from wyona.org and look at
config/ac/passwd/ldap.properties
config/ac/passwd/.keystore
config/ac/passwd/CACertificate
the publication also has slightly changed user admin screens in
lenya/xslt/admin
currently, the LDAP properties cannot be set from the Lenya GUI.
ideally, the authentication mechanism should be selectable from the
admin GUI and use the proper XSLT as well.
feel free to file an enhancement bug on these issues.
