Fernando Palma	Tuesday 11 March 2008 3:38:26 am Hi there. I'm setting up a web site with LDAP autentication, that works great for me. My problem is that I don't won't users to be created when they do the autentication, I only wont them that the username/password be validated by the LDAP server. I have allready created a script that imports all users I wont to EZ in the LDAP group. Is there any config setting to disable LDAP user creation or do I have do "go down to the code" and make the changes I wont? best regards. ../fpalma

Since the ldap login handler authorizes the user against the eZ Publish user after you login (on each request after user is logged in). eZ Online Editor 5: http://projects.ez.no/ezoe \|\| eZJSCore (Ajax): http://projects.ez.no/ezjscore \|\| eZ Publish EE http://ez.no/eZPublish/eZ-Publish-Enterprise-Subscription @: http://twitter.com/andrerom

Any way, can any one explain to me how to do a clean "fork" for this, like creating my own auth method like an extension and activate it like the ldap one? Best regards. ../fpalma
André R.	Tuesday 11 March 2008 9:39:09 am Sure, it is actually very simple. Structure: extension - <extension_name> -- login_handler --- ez<login_handler_name>user.php -- settings --- site.ini Site.ini: [UserSettings] ExtensionDirectory[]=<extension_name> #used login handlers, comment out standard if you don't want it as fall back LoginHandler[] LoginHandler[]=<login_handler_name> LoginHandler[]=standard Then you activate the extension, in admin or in settings/override/site.ini* (Might want to place the login handler specific ldap.ini settings inside the extension settings folder also!) eZ Online Editor 5: http://projects.ez.no/ezoe \|\| eZJSCore (Ajax): http://projects.ez.no/ezjscore \|\| eZ Publish EE http://ez.no/eZPublish/eZ-Publish-Enterprise-Subscription @: http://twitter.com/andrerom
