LDN - Luminis Developer Network

Does anyone know which format Luminus is storing the secret questions and answers?

Specificly what format does luminis store the svcPwrsAnswers attribute?

So far have tried MD5 and SHA1

Thanks

authentication from custom code has a few steps

1.  You bind as the directory manager.
2.  The directory manager takes the typed in username and queries the ldap for the user's DN.
3.  You perform another ldap query, this time, binding as the user DN and the user typed password.
4.  You catch any errors, or otherwise determine if the bind attempt was successful.  
5.  You set a cookie, session variable, or some means of knowing that the user is logged in.

 I am currently working on connecting Liferay to Luminis 4's LDAP. Has anyone gotten groups to work doing this. The users are getting synced on login but the groups are not getting added.

Thanks in advance

We are finally migrating to lum4 and I am trying to move our ldap sync scripts from lum3.  The delete user perl script compares external ldap accounts with luminis ldap and removes old user accounts if they do not exit in external ldap.   It is not working correctly and in fact wants to delete the groupstudiosystemuser, targetedannouncementsystemuser, and a newly created lumiintg user account.  Anyone know what I need to search on to exclude luminis accounts?  Does anyone have some generic ldap sync scripts posted somewhere for comparison and review? 

Recently we have encountered denying login on max-sessions.log and users received 503 for reaching maximun concurrent sessions. We were poking around the login files. We found when we received the following error on $CP_ROOT/products/ds/slapd-cp/logs/error, we received the denying login on max-sessions.log. Also we couldn't enable the event process otherwise we will received the denying login. We are thinking it might be related to LDAP settings.

Has anyone investigated linking Sun OpenSSO with Luminis authentication server. 

Specifically allowing Luminis to trust the OpenSSO for authentication.

So a user with an OpenSSO authentication ticket can login directly into Luminis?

Thanks

We have a user whose account keeps keeping disabled in Luminis. It is not because of failed login attempts. What other ways can an account be disabled?

Thanks,

We're in the process of upgrading to Luminis IV from uPortal and are investigating different single sign on strategies.  As many of the applications around campus use an CAS server, we're hoping to have Luminis use it as well.

One proposed setup would:

1. Use mod_auth_cas  (http://www.ja-sig.org/wiki/display/CASC/mod_auth_cas) to force the user to authenticate with CAS.

2. Grab the username from the session file mod_auth_cas creates

3. Look up the user's information (name, roles, etc) from our existing LDAP server.

Can anyone give me some example code or simple istructions (or even point me there) on how to setup and use a WebProxy Channel?

What all has to be done-

When I put in my URI location and tell it to pass uid in the setup screen it doesn't work-

I get an exception (below).

Thanks!!

We want to show a targeted content channel for a list of 1500 IDs. The list won’t change and it will only be used for a few weeks. We would like to make an Imported Group and show the channel for that group. But, that's not possible, right? Is there a way to do this, aside from creating a custom Banner role?

Thanks.
