[Xerte] ANN: Toolkits Beta 0.9

[Patrick Lockley]

It doesn't strictly need to authenticate to work - it just needs some
session variables setting.
 
The basic AD I used to run had LDAP on as standard.

I'm checking with my server friend on how to find out if LDAP is working
properly / on.

	Toolkits just needs a username, so it can start a session based
on it, right Pat? 
	 
	There are many ways the user name could be validated, but once
the validation has occurred we could easily put some code in for you to
call after the login and start the session. Then it's easy to hook up
whatever login process you want to.

	How does it authenticate?
	
	Just straight off the AD?

	We are running on a windows domain Pat. Any solutions for that?

	Hello,
	
	Same authentication as last time, LDAP or a modded demo.php.
	
	If you have another system than can handle your authentication
then I
	could offer advice as to what you could change in demo.php to
merge the
	two.

	Jules,
	
	We have had lots of problems being able to use the toolkits from
our own
	server because of having to create our own database to login
users and
	also because we don't know anything about ldap and only a little
PHP.
	
	Will this new version let us just slap it onto the server and
use it out
	of the box or will anyone installing this version still need
their own
	solution for logging in?
	
	Cheers mate,
	
	Paul
