Zimbra LDAP and MediaWiki

Jump to: navigation, search

Hi,

I'm using Zimbra (open source edition) that also comes with LDAP. I have now installed MediaWiki, and would like to use Zimbra for LDAP authentication.

Tested the documented setup and search around for different setups - but no go. Anyone already using Zimbra LDAP against MediaWiki that could post a working configuration?

Let's say my Zimbra installation is running on zimbra.mydomain.com - and in the debug log for the extention I'm able to connect successfully to zimbra.mydomain.com, but for different configurations I have tested it fails after that. So - any hope that someone could post a working configuration to put in LocalSettings.php?

Running MediaWiki on Linux.

Thanks.

Well, you kind of need to know how the zimbra LDAP is configured. This plugin won't do any form of auto-detection or auto-configuration.

Working with the same problem. The main problem is that the zimbra ldap is having some very strict acl's on the group-tree (we're also using posix). Tried it with a bind user, but the plugin always seem to try to bind with the regular user, which hasn't read rights in that part of the ldap-tree. There are some options, allow everyone to read more of the ldap, or do the complete lookup by the bind-user, which probably would require a rewrite of the plugin. If someone has other options....
