Thanks for the reply and link. It just seems to me that running tomcat, apache, samba, kerberos and winbind on a machine "just" to run a wiki is a little much, especially considering that I'm new to this unix/server world ;) Of course I'll do that if there isn't another way, i just have a hard time believing that there's no "simpler" solution to a very basic problem. To clarify: I only need users to log in automatically to the wiki, Checking against the AD would be a bonus, but I could just create the wiki-accounts by hand, as well. Intimidated by this strange world, Thilo
Hi Thilo,
I worked a lot on this subject these two last days. But I only experimented Kerberos, and Samba/Winbind/NTLM. Why don't you want to install Samba? It's easier to make it work than a Kerberos system (from what I saw). You have to install Samba, configure it, install winbind, bind on a AD domain with an administrator, and finally configure Apache to use this auth. You also need to be sure that your java container won't try to authenticate itself. See: http://adldap.sourceforge.net/wiki/doku.php?id=seamless_authentication if you haven't found this before.
I don't know any other solution without using samba or krb.
Good luck!

Hello, I'm trying to get some kind of NTLM authentication going on my Debian server, but got lost very early. I find mentions of working NTLM solutions in the archives as well as some fixes for an ominous "NTLM authenticator" (XCONTRIB-84) in Jira. I even found some installation-guide in the sandbox, but there seems to be no jar file.
Is there some kind of working NTLM solution without installing kerberos or samba?
Thanks in advance, Thilo _______________________________________________ users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/users
