NDS -> RE: [Opensource] Full LDAP Integration

[wbchmura at Ensign-BickfordInd.com]

I got an modified Tomcat JNDIRealm to work by connecting with Netware 5. 
 I am pretty sure my solution stinks for several reasons which would 
become apparent.

It does however verify a login and return the groupMemberships as Roles 
into Tomcat so it has accomplished my purposes.  This should allow a 
tomcat server to share authentication and groups with NDS...  

If someone can review it and let me know if there is a better way - 
especially for getting the groupMemberships (I am tokenizing it now).

There is a jar file at developed for 4.0.4 (or 4.0.3)

http://www.explosivo.com/bill/downloads/tomcat/

That has the code.  Any comments or suggestions for improvements are 
more than welcome.  if I ever update it I will post it to the same place 
(in case someone somewhere down the line needs it).

I hear 4.1 will have the authentication by connecting that netware 
needs... Hopefully it will also handle the groups!

No, although some changes have been made to 4.1 a result of this work by
Jayway and in preparation to making 4.1 and their LDAP component 
compatible.

This LDAP component will be available as part of the Expresso Enterprise
which includes commercial extensions to Expresso. Individual components 
of
Expresso Enterprise may be purchased separately. A release of Expresso
Enterprise will be available sometime following when 4.1 is released. If 
you
need this earlier an early access-release may be available. Please email
sales at jcorporate.com about this.

JayLDAP - an LDAP component for Expresso.
===========================================
Enables a Tomcat 4.x based Expresso solution to handle single sign on 
(SSO)
for all types of web content, from jsp to html/doc/etc, using an
LDAP-server. It also enables SSO for multiple web applications under a
single Tomcat instance.

Users: Can change their password transparently using regular Expresso
functionality.

Admin: Uses export tool after setting up or changing groups. User
information is handled transparently.

With some minor coding this can be made to work under any J2EE compliant 
web
container.

Price:
	not decided yet.
	Source code included.

Requires:
	- Expresso
	- An LDAP-server.

Availability:
	2002 Q3

Hope that gives you the information you need.

Kindly
Sandra
