Adding LDAP authentication to sme was easy.+We just needed to add the attribute userPassword to the users entries in the ldap
−server and keep them in sync with the passwords stored in /etc/shadow.
−Some applications have the possibility to use imap/pop authentication (egroupware, GLPI, maybe others), but some don't offer this possibility, but can use only LDAP. imap/pop isn't as powerful as LDAP as we can only check user/password, whereas with LDAP, we can check other attributes, groups of the user etc.
−This rpm is currently held in the smetest repository, the following commands will install on your smeserver.
−
− yum install e-smith-ldap --enablerepo=smetest --enablerepo=smeupdates-testing --exclude=*+ldap
−
−no other package is needed, if it says it does it's an issue with the repos's, download manually and 'yum localinstall'
−
− signal-event post-upgrade; signal-event reboot
