How to Disable Django's change password, forgot password

[LDAP Warrior]

I'm thinking a common change people using LDAP would want to make is
to disable Django's change password, and forgot password
functionality.

Do you guys know how to accomplish this in Django?

Thanks,

Greg

I believe you're correct, but I'm not aware of any way to do this. The fact that different backends handle password changes and resets differently isn't reflected in the auth plugin API, unfortunately.

A simple solution is remove links from template.

Also, you can overwrite urls poiting to a 404 page or something similar.

But I'm thinking, why not django-auth-ldap provide a way of change password with ldap, is it possible? Exist a common method to do it?

As a reference: For GNOME, we do it this way:
http://git.gnome.org/browse/sysadmin-bin/tree/handle-ldap-modules#n95
http://git.gnome.org/browse/sysadmin-bin/tree/handle-ldap-modules#n403

That works perfectly with openldap and user passwords in SSHA (sha1) format.

There's no way to handle password changes through the plugin API, so it would be an entirely separate feature. I actually had this need myself and ended up writing a separate Django app for my site to handle account management. The main reason is that--at least with my configuration--any changes require the user's password, which django_auth_ldap scrupulously does not retain. So I basically wrote an app that keeps the user's password in the session and makes LDAP calls directly. LDAP is pretty easy to work with; I expect any password-management code in django_auth_ldap would just end up being a trivial wrapper around python-ldap.

For this kind of evolution I guess that project django-ldapdb is a good stuff, may a future merge between django-auth-ldap and django-ldapdb would be a ideal world hehe.

Django ldapdb offers a way to handle and query ldap like a normal django model, so implement more way to query stuff and a set_password method shouldn't be a hard work, what about?

These two projects are for completely separate things. It doesn't make
a lot of sense to merge them.
