Guys, does anyone have experience in integrating MapperAuth authentication against Active Directory? Is there an easy way/hook in mapperauth to achieve this?  Any best practices or lessons learnt feedback would be appreciated.

Thank you,

Alex

Hey, I never integrated it with ActiveDirectory and there are no special hooks provided.
Your best bet (at least that's what I would do) is probably to take the code, inline it into your project and instead of looking up users in the sql database, look them up and write them to AD.

On the other hand, there's a Lift LDAP (https://github.com/lift/lift/tree/master/framework/lift-modules/lift-ldap) module, maybe that could help as well (although I have no experience with it).

Hope that helps at least a wee bit,
Torsten.

Simply authenticating against AD is very easy, using JNDI. I did that in my app, but I'm not using MapperAuth so I can't help you with that part.
