It seems MAXOS does it then?

Hi Ron,

 

Yes, if we can use Moodle as an authentication system then it makes a
lot of sense to ACL providers who can then take a wireless laptop into a
civic hall with Moodle on a stick and allow people to get onto both
Moodle and Xerte using adhoc wireless connections. The same obviously
goes for prisons. 

 

Kindest Regards,

Thomas

Do you have a moodle installation? Even if you don't as long as you
could install a copy this could be an easy solution for people to enable
alternative toolkits authentication which would include email
registration as well as account creation as that's all built in to
moodle. You wouldn't even need to use moodle as it could just be used as
the authentication method. If this were documented would it be of
interest?

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
