Just make a bind to the LDAP server, that way the directory just
functions as a passwordserver (it handles the comparison for us, and
return a denied or approved).
I you are just doing binds, use the JNDI API from SUN (After some
experiments with webobjects and LDAP, I would problably still use
JNDI for other purposes, like administration, as well, when dealing
with LDAP. I had a bundle of exeptions when trying to use enterprise
object with LDAP idrectories ).

HI,
I am still confused on how to implement authentication via LDAP
server using WO.
I know there is a website for jndi tutorials but i have no idea as to
how to implement it fo a simple authentication like;
if a user trys to input their username and password and hit login
button they will be redirected to a WOComponent with message of
"Invalid Login" if incorrect else "Valid"
I am able to browse the ldap tables using the tool "Data Browser" it's
cool but one thing I haven't understand yet is where am I gonna find
the answer as to what "o", "ou", "c" etc. im going to use for the
authentication. All I saw in the tables where rDN like this;
uid=diradmin,cn=users
uid=root,cn=users
uid=theusername,cn=users
etc.
Assuming that I have 100 users already on the LDAP server one of them
is a "Directory Administrator" how do I able to just compare the
user's password to the password stored in the "Person"
table/attributes so that i can make an ldap authentication?
Anybody tried using LDAP and WebObjects before, where username and
password is centralized and a very convenient way to the users.
