http authorization + active directory + drupal

robbinH - October 15, 2008 - 15:02

I am looking into using drupal and want the site to use http-authorization (connected to an active directory) AND i want drupal to read the username supplied to apache and query the domain controller for the information it needs (like email-adress and so forth).

I guess it should be called SSO but I would not like it to be mixed with the queries about only signing on to drupal (and its friends) once, I want the users to sign on to the domain once, and they will be "pre-approved" for drupal, and users who aren't signed on to the domain won't even get past apache.

Is this possible today?

take a look at the http://drupal.org/project/httpauth and http://drupal.org/project/webserver_auth modules.
