[Users] OpenLDAP for authentication

Hi everyone, i just started to use oVirt and i tried to get it work with my OpenLDAP/Kerberos setup. After a lot of searching for the error message i finally stumbled over an e-mail on this list that OpenLDAP is not yet supported [1]. As advised i opened a RFE bug [2] :). Is there any developer documentation how the access to the directory is supposed to work? Maybe one of my humble co-workers with more Java skills then me can contribute something. Best wishes, Matthias [1] http://lists.ovirt.org/pipermail/users/2012-February/000678.html [2] https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=836839

Hi Matthias, Indeed, we have no support for OpenLDAP at this stage. You can see we have an enum at code defining the providers we support - LdapProviderType.java located at - modules/utils/src/main/java/org/ovirt/engine/core/ldap/LdapProviderType.java You can follow the instructions on the following wiki - http://www.ovirt.org/wiki/DomainInfrastructure To start adding OpenLdap support. I will be more than glad to assist you Cheers, Yair
