Hello,

In the LDAP flow, I need to perform some operations like below

1. If the user is locked, we need to display a custom error message

2. Max. possible lock count is 6 and we need to check that count each login click

3. if the user is inactive, we need to save some information in a separate table

In the CAS 3.5.4, I was able to handle all these in BandLdapAuthenicationHandler,

but coming to CAS 6.2.2, how to perform these customized operations?

Please provide some guidance on this, I went through the documentations but didn't get a clue, how to proceed in this.

Also, how will we be able to create some custom errors for view?

With regards,

Sobhen

Hello,

Currently, LdapAuthenticationHandler.java is handling the Ldap authentication related to CAS. Suppose, I want to take some more operations based on the result of the Ldap authentication, how I be able to do the same? I mean something extra like locking the user, if the user tried to login more than 6 times (we have this specific use case). For this, do we need to bring up a customized LdapAuthenticationHandler by extending AbstractUsernamePasswordAuthenticationHandler?
