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 re-edit files.
JAuthTools is comprised of various components:
Each component provides specific abilities extending the base Joomla! install. Different projects are relevant to different releases of Joomla!, so if you are new check out the Supported Platforms page to work out which project is for you.
Additionally there is a history of the project, generic upgrade instructions and information about compatibility with other popular Joomla! extensions.
