Multiple Authentication mode

Post by brunette »

Hi,

I continue the study of Mantis for our society... it's really a great project we really want to use it . It's easy to use, very complete and it's also very easy to configure if you know PHP.

I saw in the roadmap of the project that multiple authentification modes would be implement in the version 2.1.0. How many time do you think it will be implement ?

In fact I configure Mantis to use LDAP authentification. Easily all developpers can access to Mantis. But clients must be integrate to our LDAP dictionnary so and we wouldn't for securities reasons.

I don't know what to do ... I see that we can use mantis with a CMS ? We use Mambo in our IT it is possible to use Mambo module authentification with Mantis ?
How do you do in your IT ?

Thank you for your help ...

I also see that a manual will be write for the 2.0.2 version. I think It's a very good idea. Few open source projects have a manual. I would enjoy to help you in this project. How can I do ?
Who can I contact ?
Thanks

With respect to authentication, the plan was to make it modular to allow one to pick from several supplied methods, or plug in your own. It's still in the concept stage.

As for the manual, I'd suggest that you join the developer's list. We're looking to port the manual into a text file form. possibly using DocBook, to make it simpler to edit and manage. Any input would be welcome.

- customer -> MD5

I just define a new constant in the file : core/constant_inc.php

I recommend you submit the modified files and possibly the patch at http://bugs.mantisbt.org. We can then look at it when we are working on this feature.
