Adds LDAP support for frontend and backend.
Configuration
- The module defines a "Person" as a contao "Member" or a "User". Both Member and User inherit from Person. This way all relevant functionality is defined in Person superclasses.
- When configuring and saving an LDAP access in tl_settings, all found members (or users) are imported as configured. One could redo this again in order to update all existing local ldap members (or users).
- Local existing members (or users) remotely non existing are disabled, not deleted.
- If LDAP groups have been selected in tl_settings, they're imported and assigned to the appropriate members (or users).
- So local copies of remotely existing members (or users) and groups are created.
- If a member (or user) tries to login with invalid credentials (i.e. credentials are really invalid or a local ldap member (or user) has not been created, yet) a local ldap copy is created on the fly.
- In the frontend "ModuleLdapLogin" has to be used for LDAP support
- The checkCredentials Hook is run everytime a LDAP member (or user) tries to login since after a successful login the password is set to some random value. This is necessary in order to keep local and remote member (or user) up to date.
