Latest version of rails/ruby and using Ruby-Net-Ldap I am a little confused on implementing a LDAP authentication mechanism with rails. I have successfully made a ruby script which will authenticate with my ldap server but I can''t seem to get it to work within rails. Does the authentication definitions aka. ldap.con { :host => xyz, :method => simple} go into by method or controller? I can create a view and define my login/password textfield and then submit those values to a function, but I am not getting any response. I apologize for the newbish terminology but I am not a season ruby developer and am still learning? Any hints for pointing my in the right direction? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

script/console is great for debugging. Code snippets can help people figure out how to help you. I''ve never worked with LDAP, but I guarantee if you go into the console and call your methods, you''ll learn something, probably a lot.

Did you take a look at the existing LDAP things for rails? http://wiki.rubyonrails.org/rails/pages/Simple+LDAP+Authenticator http://wiki.rubyonrails.org/rails/pages/HowtoAuthenticateViaLdap Ian Anderson wrote:> > Latest version of rails/ruby and using Ruby-Net-Ldap > > I am a little confused on implementing a LDAP authentication mechanism > with rails.
