[xwiki-users] New users and LDAP

by mtenhoor

Hi, I'm trying to implement xwiki for the first time in our environment. We have an OpenLDAP server that I would like to use for authentication. I have been able to get xwiki to authenticate via LDAP for users that already exist in the xwiki database, but there are a few things that still are not right. 1. I can not log in to xwiki unless the user already exists in the xwiki database. This would not be a problem (and in fact is probably prefered) except... 2. When xwiki is configured to use LDAP, I can not add a user to the database. I also can not change xwiki group membership or permissions for any user when xwiki is configured for LDAP. Everything related to users seems to be locked while xwiki is on LDAP. 3. Users can authenticate using their LDAP password or the password that is stored in the xwiki database. I know that has to do with the 'xwiki.authentication.ldap.trylocal=1' setting, but without that it, the login form gives no feedback as to why the login failed. ex. "Wrong user name" etc. Right now it seems to me that the only way for me to add a new user to xwiki would be to: 1. take xwiki off LDAP 2. add user to xwiki database 3. set permissions 4. put xwiki back on LDAP There has to be an easier way to do this. Some of the threads I've been reading indicate that users are automatically created when authenticated via LDAP. This would be fine with me as long as the default group had no permissions, and I could later assign the user to the appropriate group. I've included an excerpt from my xwiki.cfg file. Please let me know if I'm doing something wrong. Thanks. FYI my xwiki version number is 1.6.1.13621 ------------------- Excerpt from xwiki.cfg: #------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- # LDAP #------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- #-# new LDAP authentication service xwiki.authentication.authclass=com.xpn.xwiki.user.impl.LDAP.XWikiLDAPAuthServiceImpl #-# Turn LDAP authentication on - otherwise only XWiki authentication #-# 0: disable #-# 1: enable xwiki.authentication.ldap=1 #-# LDAP Server (Active Directory, eDirectory, OpenLDAP, etc.) xwiki.authentication.ldap.server=192.168.xxx.xxx xwiki.authentication.ldap.port=389 #-# LDAP login, empty = anonymous access, otherwise specify full dn #-# {0} is replaced with the username, {1} with the password xwiki.authentication.ldap.bind_DN=cn=manager,dc=[domain],dc=[TLD] xwiki.authentication.ldap.bind_pass=xxxxxxxxxxx #-# Force to check password after LDAP connection #-# 0: disable #-# 1: enable xwiki.authentication.ldap.validate_password=0 #-# only members of the following group will be verified in the LDAP #-# otherwise only users that are found after searching starting from the base_DN # xwiki.authentication.ldap.user_group=cn=developers,ou=groups,o=MegaNova,c=US #-# [Since 1.5RC1, XWikiLDAPAuthServiceImpl] #-# only users not member of the following group can autheticate # xwiki.authentication.ldap.exclude_group=cn=admin,ou=groups,o=MegaNova,c=US #-# base DN for searches xwiki.authentication.ldap.base_DN=ou=Users,dc=percipenz,dc=com #-# Specifies the LDAP attribute containing the identifier to be used as the XWiki name (default=cn) xwiki.authentication.ldap.UID_attr=uid #-# [Since 1.5M1, XWikiLDAPAuthServiceImpl] #-# Specifies the LDAP attribute containing the password to be used "when xwiki.authentication.ldap.validate_password" i$ # xwiki.authentication.ldap.password_field=userPassword #-# [Since 1.5M1, XWikiLDAPAuthServiceImpl] #-# The potential LDAP groups classes.

Re: [xwiki-users] [ANN] XWiki Enterprise 1.7 Milestone 2 Released

Just looking at the new WYSIWYG editor - just one question - will there be an option to make it easy to link to a file on a network drive i.e. via file:// ? Yes I know one could insert files into the wiki itself, but some people (those new to wikis) prefer the flexibility of storing files on network drives and it also provides a means of using the wiki as a way of indexing files on network drives and commenting on what the files are.

Re: [xwiki-users] Problems with migration to xwiki 1.6.war in jboss 4.2.1

by Tronicek

Hi, I was running in similar problems. By now i'm using hibernate.cfg.xml with pure JDBC connection. DataSource was working up to 1.5.2 - and is not working since 1.6zzz. JBoss (4.2.1, 4.2.2) shows JNDI reference but it is not recognized by xwiki.

[xwiki-users] Putting users in seperate space

by Henk Schouten

Hello, Ik was wondering if it would be useful to allow userpages (including XWiki.XWikiUserClass) in another space than the XWiki 'system' space. I tried this, but logging on only seems to work if users are in the XWiki space. I would like them to be in a seperate space to allow users to edit content on their own page and others to comment on them. Regards, Henk == Henk F.

[xwiki-users] How to assess what page is currently being viewed by the user

by BrianJones

Hello community, This may be a bit of an easy/stupid question, but bear with me! Is there a way to assess what page is currently being viewed by the user (with Velocity), so that I may be able to do something like this: #if (currentPage = someOtherPage) ...do this... #else ... do something else... #end Any input on this would be amazing!

Also is there going to be an table properties option to set the table border on/off, border line widths/colours, table cell colours, column, row widths, column headings, etc - our users would like the flexibility of tables to help layout their wiki pages (hiding the table borders) to mimic magazine layouts.
