Hi,
After some more investigations, I found out that I need to change
the authentication method (variable $dolibarr_main_authentication in
conf/conf.php). So I did but the code looks really out of date and
uses global variables that are obviously not set ?!
I'll continue to search but if one can shed some light on this, that
would really help :)
Basically, I'm first wondering if LDAP authentication is supposed to
work ?
Thanks, have a great day.

Hi,
For a possible new customer, I made some investigation about
how to connect Dolibarr with Zimbra. We
would really like to make the final solution fully integrated
so that it looks like one solution for mail / agenda /
contacts / invoices (and possibly more later).
So the first thing I wanted to achieve is to be able to
connect in Dolibarr with an account created in Zimbra. As all
accounts are stored in a LDAP directory, I thought it would be
very straightforward...
After some (long) hours of bug hunting(*) I was able to browse
the Zimbra user list and create an user account in Dolibarr from the
information in Zimbra. Good.
Unfortunately, it looks like the password of this new user is
managed in Dolibarr even if I specified the LDAP password
field ?! I
don't want to manage two times the same password: if the user
is changing his/her password in Zimbra, he/she
should be able to reuse the same in Dolibarr.
How can I re-use the password from Zimbra ?
Is this supposed to work ?
Thanks for your help.
(*) I found
out many little glitches! The LDAP related code in
v3.1.0-beta does not work. I may send a global patch (and
some documentation) later if I can make the whole thing to
work...
