Welcome to the Joomla! Authentication Tools wiki (JAuthTools).

Joomla! Authentication Tools are a collection of Joomla! extensions that allow greater integration of Joomla! into a corporate environment. By providing authentication support it allows both single sign on and single sign in style authentication against the corporate directory (e.g. openLDAP, MSAD, eDirectory) for Joomla! powered sites. The ideal that JAuthTools strives for is to avoid altering the core of Joomla!, unlike previous LDAP integration projects for both Mambo and Joomla! which required altering core files. By attempting to avoid this we aim to be more flexible in allowing users to easily upgrade their Joomla! site without having to realter files.

JAuthTools is comprised of various components:

• LDAP Tools
• Single Sign On (SSO)
• User Sources
• JAuthManager

Each component provides specific abilities extending the base Joomla! install.
