[Xerte] Authentication

I think most will have some sort of LDAP somewhere, or something else
they can authenticate off?

 

Have you tried using the new single sign on stuff with the VLE you
demoed at EELS?

 

Happy to offer pointers.

Hi Jeremy, 

 

We have had the same problem, I had a go with it once (ages ago) and
ended up giving up due to time constraints (that's my excuse!!)... I
think most people who install toolkits will have this issue. I think
from memory Pat told me to edit login_library.php as my ideal outcome is
to use a mysql db to authenticate.

 

Paul

Hello All,

 

Are there any alternatives to LDAP authentication?

Is it possible to have for example email registration, or just create a
database of user accounts?

If this feature does not yet exsit, where which files would I need to
edit to create it?

For example, if I wanted to write a new auth method, where would I
change the function / method call?

 

Thanks Jeremy
