similar to: ActiveLDAP handle uppercase attributes?

Anyone out there using ActiveLDAP have an idea how I can accomplish creating an object one level below a known base where we have a variable item in the middle? That first sentence doesn''t even make sense to me. Here''s what I want to do: I have a user class that I use for managing users. Each user gets a ou called addressbook (which in turn will contain sub-entries, but

Hi, I''ve just started to do some work using ActiveLDAP and Rails. I''ve managed to get some basic login code that works to authenticate users, but I would like to be able to maintain that connection for the User Model so that the ACL''s in LDAP for each user will be used correctly as the various controller queries are made. I haven''t quite sorted out how to

Stupid activeldap is messing with my mind ;-) rails (3.1.1 activeldap (3.1.0) rubygems-update (1.4.2) I have activerecord (database.yml/postgresql) and activeldap (ldap.yml) as configured sources for my models. I want to add some more things to my models but activeldap is killing my attempts to create migrations... cwhite@nxpc:~/tti_framework$ rails generate migration AddSettings error

Hi, I''ve a problem and I don''t know if it is solvable with activeLDAP. Here is an example of the tree structure of our LDAP server. The structure isn''t exactly like that, but is similare and I can already access almost any informations of a user when I''m logging as this user. The probleme come when using the belong_to, has_many and ldap_mapping has you will

Is there any recent good guide on how to use ActiveLDAP? Thanks, Petr -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Now I''m a ruby nooby so be gentle... I''ve gotten ActiveLDAP working from the command line, but buggered if I can work out how on earth to integrate an ActiveLDAP object with a bunch of ActiveRecord objects. This is going to be possible right? I''m just going to have to build the whole scaffold myself for these objects? Just thought I''d check whether it

I just installed ActiveLdap, copied the plugin into vendor/plugins and setup a config/ldap.yml file. Starting rails gives me an error that it can not find the ldap source file. (I installed from the gem with its prerequisites log4r, etc.) /usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:27:in `gem_original_require'': no such file to load -- ldap (MissingSourceFile)

Obviously I am missing something and I don''t know what it is... I am following the instructions at http://rubyforge.org/docman/view.php/381/114/activeldap_rb.html and also here... http://wiki.rubyonrails.org/rails/pages/HowtoAuthenticateViaLdap my model looks exactly like this... class LdapUser < ActiveRecord::Base ldap_mapping :dnattr => ''uid'', :prefix

Hello, I am working on creating a simple interface for an ldap user repository. A little background, for development, I am working under Cygwin, with an ssh port forward on port 636 (for SSL). I have included clips of my error message and all config/environment/model files below. I replaced domain information, which I have double checked with "<CORRECT>". Please let me know

Hi group I''m trying to hook up my simple app to Active Directory. I''m following instructions posted on the website. Mainly http://wiki.rubyonrails.com/rails/pages/HowtoAuthenticateViaLdap and now also http://wiki.rubyonrails.com/rails/pages/ActiveLDAP. The two instructions seem to differ a little on how to configure (environment.rb). Both instructions break my app with an

So I would like to use ActiveLDAP. I have been following along with http://wiki.rubyonrails.org/rails/pages/HowtoAuthenticateViaLdap . I installed ruby-activeldap (0.8.0) from RubyGems, which also installed log4r -- that all appeared to work. I then installed rubyldap from its latest tar.gz. Also appeared to work fine. But I''m stuck here. When I add require

Hi, I am trying to use ActiveLdap for authentication in my rails app. But I am running into a problem with the "belongs_to" and "has_many" associations. Here ist how my models look like. class Person < ActiveLdap::Base ldap_mapping :dn_attribute => "uid", :prefix => "ou=People", :classes =>

Hello, I am currently working on a project using Ruby on Rails. So far, I have a well-populated mySQL database the RoR refers to and the basic scaffolding functions implemented. I also designed views/layouts that furthers the basic scaffolding interface. No problem and no big accomplishment by any means. Now, I want to pull user information from an already existing LDAP server and put that

Hello all, I am interested in developing some web front end stuff for an openldap directory using RoR. But there seems to be a lack of examples. If you guys know of any links to examples in using ActiveLDAP, that would be great :) Also if there is anything i should know about before using activeldap that you know from experience would also be nice. Thx in advance. -------------- next part

Hi Guys, I''ve got a rails application that uses activeldap to authenticate users. Its been working great for about 6 months now, but a user from mexico started using it recently, but can''t seem to login. I''ve narrowed it down to the fact that his password contains a ñ character in it. This problem is also present in a test user account I''ve setup. ActiveLDAP

I thought I might try to create a Rails app to use LDAP authentication. Unfortunately, I can''t figure out how to get the Ruby/LDAP stuff working in my environment (I''m using a windows server). If anyone out there has experience with this, could you dumb it down a little bit for me? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi, I've been trying to follow the documentation that I am finding, but am running into trouble getting things set up correctly for postfix + virtual domains (using ldap) with dovecot LDA. I can get it to work without LDA, but I'm running into permissions problems when I try to run with LDA. I am wondering if anyone has any good examples of configuring this. I basically have a

This may be a more generic Ruby question, so I''m going to ask on the Ruby forum, but I''m trying to figure out if there is a way to pass in the string value of a variable as the name of a method. For example, I would like to do something like: def sort_obj_by_uid(objects,@attr) @tmparray = Array.new @tmphash = Hash.new for object in @objects if !
