Good Afternoon,
I have recently installed the above. In order to have this setup correctly I am looking to have it so that only users with the correct AD group can access it AND so that when they do access it they are logged in automatically.
I have been looking at the LDAP hub to try and understand what is required to achieve this but it's all quite confusing.
Before I start installing extentions I wanted clarification on this particular extention.
Am I right in understanding that this extension is primarily used to allow users to login automatically? If so, would authenticating via a windows prompt (Windows Authentication, Basic Authentication) be applicable to this?
Based on the configuration items listed I don't fully understand how it would pass the login variables set via Windows prompt or alternative method.
Lastly am I also correct in saying that an alternative plugin would be required that prevents users from accessing the application if they do not have the required groups?
