better understanding of LDAP authemtication - Joomla! Forum - community, help and support
i'm trying figure out few things regarding new ldap authentication bot featured in 1.1 (also available in ldap hack). understand central database of usernames several programs can use authentication, few things still fuzzy no matter how googling do:
my goal have squirrelmail (webmail), proftpd (ftp server), , joomla use 1 ldap database, therefore when user creates account joomla website, ftp directory, mail account , joomla account. of these programs support ldap authentication , suspect common use ldap if understand correctly.
something boost registered users, long site personal enough not worry random people dropping fedoracore isos or whole season of family guy on server using ftp account.
if has accomplished or knows pointers, let me know think.

you right path. ldap can authenticate against ldap directory. won't automatically provide users settings mail account/ftp directory , like. need create script you. every application or service want needs ldap enabled. notice ldap bot not generatie single sign on. users still have authenticate seperately (with same name , password ) against each resource.
