This is my first post to the list. Let me begin by saying I think XWiki is very very cool. I have 2 questions. 1. Is there a place I can look to find more info about setting up XWiki to use LDAP for authentication? I looked at http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Dev/LDAPIntegration and link specific to active directory. I'd like XWiki to simply check passwords against our LDAP server but do nothing else with it (like trying to add users in it etc.). I looked at the LDAPAuthServiceImpl.java source, but wasn't really able to make anything out of it. 2. How do I enable logging and turn up the log level in XWiki? I'll try to aggregate whatever helpful answers I get and add them to xwiki.org. Thanks, --Craig
Hi, 1. In xwiki.cfg you need to specify the authentication class to use, like: xwiki.authentication.authclass=com.xpn.xwiki.user.impl.LDAP.LDAPAuthServiceImpl Then I think you also need to set all the properties used in LDAPAuthServiceImpl.java, so: xwiki.authentication.ldap.port=... xwiki.authentication.ldap.server=... xwiki.authentication.ldap.bind_DN=... xwiki.authentication.ldap.bind_pass=... xwiki.authentication.ldap.base_DN=... xwiki.authentication.ldap.fields_mapping=... xwiki.authentication.ldap.UID_attr=... xwiki.authentication.ldap.check_level=... 2. Edit the file xwiki\WEB-INF\classes\log4j.properties to set the log level for specific packages or classes, like: com.xpn.xwiki.user.impl.LDAP=debug Cheers, Robin On 27/02/06, Craig Muth <craig.mu@gmail.com> wrote:

Thanks man. That got me to the point where I have a reasonable error message ("LDAPAuthServiceImpl:Bind:482 - LDAP Bind does not have binding info"). I think I can talk to my LDAP guy to work through it.
I'd like XWiki to simply check passwords against our LDAP server but do nothing else with it (like trying to add users in it etc.).
Maybe I understood this sentence from the wiki<http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Dev/LDAPIntegration> . Currently we have user auth and user creation using LDAP I guess that doesn't mean creating a user in the LDAP database. Any idea how to enable these options (also from the wiki<http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Dev/LDAPIntegration> )? option to check non LDAP users against the XWiki user database option to have Automatic membership of LDAP users in XWiki.XWikiAllGroup, or XWiki.XWikiLdapGroup Currently it's failing in the ldap lookup and not trying (I think) in the xwiki database.

Currently we have user auth and user creation using LDAP
I guess that doesn't mean creating a user in the LDAP database. No it means with create XWiki pages for users in LDAP when they authenticate
Any idea how to enable these options (also from the wiki <http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Dev/LDAPIntegration>)?
# option to check non LDAP users against the XWiki user database
That's standard if the LDAP call failed
# option to have Automatic membership of LDAP users in XWiki.XWikiAllGroup, or XWiki.XWikiLdapGroup
-> this is done by the createUser call
Currently it's failing in the ldap lookup and not trying (I think) in the xwiki database.
