[Xerte-dev] Re: LDAP authentication problems at EFC Resolved

[Thomas Rochford]

Hi Dave,

Thank you for this.

I've had a look and the 'offending' line is there at line 113. I don't think
it's a good idea to hard code this. I suggest the search filter/attributes
should be read from the database, so as to allow for user configuration.
'array("sAMAccountName","objectclass","cn")' should probably be the
default/recommendation for AD, whereas the supplied mapping may be better
for LDAP.

Kindest Regards,
Thomas
