ICTSM Posted October 16, 2009 Posted October 16, 2009 Hi All! How do you direct Moodle to authenticate logged-on users on a domain network. MS Server 2003 - Active directory (Primary) MS Server 2003 - Moodle Server (Member) Can this be done?
mb2k01 Posted October 16, 2009 Posted October 16, 2009 By "Authenticate logged on users" what exactly do you mean? Are you asking how existing network users can log on using their AD credentials, or do you want users to be able to go to Moodle and be automatically logged in with their account details?
ICTSM Posted October 16, 2009 Author Posted October 16, 2009 Single Sign On would be terrific! But I could always drop to the next best thing, which is using their domain credentials to logon to Moodle.
DrPerceptron Posted October 16, 2009 Posted October 16, 2009 I gues this would help you. NTLM authentication - MoodleDocs LDAP certainly works fine here for us.
dhicks Posted October 16, 2009 Posted October 16, 2009 Can this be done? Yes. Get your Domain Controller to act as an LDAP server (it's a setting someplace), then get Moodle to authenticate against that. -- David Hicks
mb2k01 Posted October 16, 2009 Posted October 16, 2009 Sorry for the slow reply. The NTLM link will allow you set up intergrated sign in (using their Windows Accounts without them having to type a new login etc). You'll need to consider how they access outside of school - so possibly LDAP as well as NTLM or maybe email authentication (depends on your requirements)
