Remove @domain.com from LDAP search

[msksharma]

Hi,

We have about 85 current users whose user id is firstname.lastname@domain.com.

I am trying to authenticate these users against LDAP. Where the user id is firstname.lastname.

I configured Config.pm and specified our LDAP servers and the internal database as the third option.

When i rename one of the users to firstname.lastname, it works and the user is able to access every thing and authenticate against LDAP.

Is it possible in the Config.pm or somewhere, i still have the userid as firstname.lastname@domain.com but when i do the LDAP search and authenticate, i omit the @domain.com

If this feature works, then it will be really useful and i do not have to rename any users and make major changes to the system.

Thanks,

Username will match the field that it matches.

Note that you probably want to use the same backend for both user authentication and user data. See my ldap tutorial in the HowTos.
