LDAP authentication + Roles/Access Control |
[eluser]Unknown[/eluser]
Complete CI noob here. I need LDAP Authentication but also a Role-based access control system (roles won't come from LDAP). I'm looking at DX_Auth but I need authentication through our LDAP server, not a registration-based login. I think DX_Auth's access control and roles would work for what I need, and I'm looking at LDAP library. Or could I somehow modify DX_Auth to use LDAP? Thanks

Not sure about DX or that stuff but before I got onto CI I had to perform similar operations with our Active Directory server via LDAP. I just got OpenLDAP (assuming you are using Linux for your web server) installed and then wrote my own class to wrap around PHP's built in LDAP functions (eg. ldap_connect and the like). Works a treat! That being said, I haven't ported it to a CI Library or Plugin or anything.
