LDAP for SME Server 8
Description
LDAP authentication
For SME 8 only, LDAP is readonly
This allows the use of SME user's database in other applications
- either local, eg. a LAMP app
- on the server itself, eg. egroupware
- on the local network, eg. another server in the local network which runs an ERP, but uses SME server user/group database
- or even a remote host, eg. a GLPI instance used to manage requests from several clients using SME server.
