Re: Testing HTTPD auth?

I have been sidetracked for a while, but I would still be interested in testing or working on this. It is starting to get dark and cold here -- so a better time to work on such things!

Testing HTTPD auth?

Thorsten,

I would be pleased to do some testing of HTTPD auth functions. I have created 30-40 FAQs, but I have not put phpMyFAQ into general use yet, so I could afford to test on my existing installation.

Thanks!

LDAP and auto user create from REMOTE_USER

I just returned from holiday and found the 2.x releases. Woohoo! The 1.6.8->2.0.1 update worked great. So I guess now would be a good time to resurrect this feature question. Since my application is a PubCookie-protected intranet that requires a valid user ID (from an Apache authgroupfile), I would ...

Re: Web Auth

Hi, there're also several others SSO infrastructures that use specs like e.g. SAML, being more abstract and with a strong trust model. Generally speaking, trusting REMOTE_USER is not good but I recognize that often everything is trusted inside a LAN context. Whilst 2.0.0 has a pluggable auth system...

Web Auth

Hi Jim, AFAIK no one of the PMF users use a Pubcookie infrastructure: we'll talk internally how and when addressing such a(n interesting) request to balance new features requests, the current tasks plan and, last but not least, the spare time of the Dev Team Members ;). Ciao, Matteo Thanks. I think...

CC email

Matteo,

Excelllent. I can "make do" for now. I should go look more at 2.x development before asking 5 or 6 more questions!

HTTPD Auth?

(Heh, they just started playing 99 Luftballons on Radio Paradise. I don't see that on Thorsten's 80s wish list!) I may be in minority in employing phpMyFAQ on restricted intranet. That is my case, and we use Pubcookie (pubcookie.org) for user authentication against university ID/password, so I alway...

Additional CCemail per category for initial notice/question.

I am implementing phpMyFAQ on an intranet for my academic department. I did not want to create multiple FAQs in subdirectories, so I am using one FAQ and distinct categories like "Computing" and "Fiscal". I would like computing and fiscal people to get notice of new questions in ...
