LDAP integration with existing ACS users for authentication

[Sonali Jadhav <so...@servercentralen.se>]

Hi,

I am running ACS 4.8.0 .I have few domains and accounts and respective users. All these existing users are using internal cloudstack authentications. But I wanted to implement LDAP authentication for new users Or I was wondering if it's possible to have LDAP and cloudstack both authentications running ?
Or Do I have to move existing ones to LDAP first?
How I can proceed with it?

Actually we have developed our own external customer portal/billing system, so we wanted to integrate cloudstack into it, so it will be centralized authentication from LDAP system.

HI ,

No need  to move existing ones to LDAP. You can  have both.

Please read the below link:
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CLOUDSTACK/LDAP%3A+Trust+AD+and+Auto+Import

go through the flow diagrams .you will understand better:
