vBulletin Ldap Authentication Plugin
![]() Developer Last Online: Mar 2020 ![]() ![]() ![]() This modification is in the archives.
I am using vbulletin for a long time now and before there was the plugin system introduces i hacked every single version of vb to enable ldap authentication. with the introduction of the plugin system i have written a little plugin that works in every version since VBulletin 3.5. This Plugin is the buyable VBulletin Ligh Authentication from http://www.sartori.at. now its FREE.
Since its working and i will not enhance this small plugin anymore, i will make it public. If there are any enhancements, i can put it into my versioning system and update this plugin. In contrast to the ldap authentication from zemic my board can authenticate against every - already deployed - ldap directory without changeing the encryption type. If the ldap user is not added in the VBulletin database, the user is automatically added the first time he authenticates against the ldap. if the user already exists then nothing is changed, except the authentication against the directory. in the admin or moderator panel no user is authenticated against the directory. Requirements
Installation Notes:
Additional Notes: If you are running a Microsoft Active Directory as Ldap server you have to change some settings to allow anonymous queries. This is described at Novell and Microsoft I would be happy if you support my modification in any way. Install or nominate it or donate some cents at paypal. ![]() Download Now Only licensed members can download files, Click Here for more information. Addons Supporters / CoAuthors Show Your Support

Interesting how there is 2 LDAP authentification mods released so close to each other. Not sure how the 2 compare but there is a complete explaination of what LDAP is and how it works here> http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=145188
More or less if you don't need it/use it already for other network related work there is no need for you to install it. No members have liked this post.

with my mod you can authenticate against a LDAP directory and not against the vbulletin user database.

Though this is not something I can use at the moment it would be great if the 2 of you could come to terms and merge both into 1 product. The problem with VB.org is there tends to be 2, 3 or more sometimes of the same modification.

nice hack, but I'm not much of a file editor.. I like to just leave file edits out, especially when upgrades come out for vB. Nice hack though

LDAP Authentication is basically used for people to have a server (Microsoft or Novell) many schools, colleges, university's, company's, LDAP stores the user's account details i.e. username, full name, password, address, folders etc
Basically LDAP Authentication Plugins will allow you to use your users details on your Microsoft or Novell Server for user authentication insted of your MySQL (etc) database. Would manly ideal for schools, colleges, unis, or companys who want to run a forum, but use the user's computer logon details to logon to the forum No members have liked this post.

Does a user still need to register? Or do they automatically get ability to login from existing LDAP credentials?

a user can authenticate with the existing ldap user data. no need for registering with vbulletin.
