I have 2.3.2 and have been searching for a long time for and answer to my LDAP problem. I have a web server running Xoops. I have a directory system (eDirectory/Active Directory) that has LDAP. I can authenticate to LDAP from the site, but when I create a new user it refuses to create on in the directory. So, when a user tries to login, access denied. Am I missing something? Is there a way to fix this?

I'm using 2.3.17 and note that LDAP authentication is available as of this version at least but there appears to be no documentation about it and not much discussion in the forums. Does anybody use this stuff? Who put it there then?

I have a particular interest because I need to integrate xoops, Quickbooks and a solution written using Servoy. LDAP seems to be an efficient way to provide a single login process.

Anybody out there with a clue about or a pointer to info using LDAP with xoops?

I know some people are using it. It seems to be straight forward. Just fill in the required preferences (admin - preferences - authentication).
