Hello,

You have a few options.


1)    If you have moodle on the same server, as your toolkits, you can use moodle to handle your authentication (for signing on).

2)    If you have something else which can provide password checking, then you can use integration.txt (in the root) to take values from another system

3)    If you want to use a small number of accounts, switch.txt in the root has functionality in it to have passwords and usernames hard coded in.

4)    If you're brave, you can use demo.txt which has no passwords at all, but everything happens under one user id. I wouldn't do this on a web server that anyone could access though.

Also, you could write a non ldap authentication system, but I don't really count that as a number 5.

Pat

Hi All,
  Firstly thanks for the help I received getting XERTE installed, much appreciated and nice to see an active community on here.

I'm just wondering is there a way in which we can train the XERTE server toolkit without an LDAP server? Any advice really appreciated.

Thanks
 Rob
