Hi!
Could anyone point to any additonal resources for LDAP Authentication. The
XWiki doc
http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Authentication does
not deal in complete detail on all the possible attributes that can be
configured in xwiki.cfg. I have configured LDAP authentication for XWik
but have Some questions that I could not find answers to from the docs.
1) How can the LDAP configuration be debugged for any issues. I
followed the log4j settings from
http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Logging . There is no
LDAP related logging in the xwiki log. The xwiki log shows that the
user was Authenticatied with Xwiki.FormAuthenticator e.g this is the
message in the log " [P1-19] INFO xwiki.MyFormAuthenticator - User
xwiki:XWiki.testuser5 has been logged-in" (not sure if this would
internally call the LDAP class). However, since only the ldap users are
being authenticated, I think the .XWikiLDAPAuthServiceImpl is being used.
I found on the web that
com.xpn.xwiki.user.impl.LDAP=debug log seeting could be used for setting
the LDAP loglevel to debug. However, this setting still does not log
anything LDAP. Is this a valid setting for XWikiLDAPAuthServiceImpl?
How can I conclusively say the authentication is done through LDAP?
2)Is it possible to replicate the groups in LDAP to groups in XWIKI and
replicate the corresponding groupmemberships for a user during login so
that the authorization is done through XWiki based on the user's group
association in LDAP?
Thanks.
Sharan.
