Note: it also mean adding the fields you need in XWikiPreference class.

class and modify it a bit for the headers authenticator, should not be
very hard.

Hi,
On of the goal we would like to achieve using XWiki is SSO integration
in relation to our openLDAP server, through LemonLDAP::NG
(
http://www.lemonldap-ng.org/).
We have tried with success the extension at
http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/XWiki+Authenticator+He…
but we see a limitation here : it seems not possible to re-configure
this extension at run-time from the UI, it means that the instance
should be restarted when in the need to alter a configuration option
like xwiki.authentication.headers.groups_mapping (and fields_mapping too).
The same remark apply to other SSO extensions like Jasig CAS/SAML one.
What would be the implication in terms of development power to make
those configuration properties available at run-time ? Like it's done
within the LDAP Application for example.
For a start we don't necessarily need an UI/app but at least the
attributes somewhere available in object mode.
Another option I see is the possibility to achieve group mapping
directly from the LDAP instead of getting it from the headers. That
would lead to a combination of the LDAP authenticator and SSO (but at
the moment only one authclass can be used at a time).
Cheers,
Martin
