LDAP Tools/Technology
From Authentication Tools for Joomla! (JAuthTools)
How does it work?
The bots are presently built in an 'interceptor' style model. Basically the bots detect:
- For SSI: a user trying to log in
- For SSO: a user visiting the page who isn't logged in but their networkAddress is in the LDAP directory (networkAddress attribute)
- For Sync: a user already logged in
Each of these bots work to either autocreate the user (SSI/SSO) or alter their permissions (Sync) to match the LDAP system.
