PHPBB does not today support LDAP authentication but version 2.2 will. There are several mods for LDAP to install though.
Keep us updated on your work, it seems to be more people than me that could use something like that. /peter

Hi all ... Well i am working on a simple solution on this way for my own applications ... The autehntication will be used to a LDAP Server , and when a user logs in, a check on the LDAP tree must be set to TRUE, them all applications using the same LDAP can find the user authenticated or not.
When a user signs in on an application, a LDAP attribute must be set to TRUE. and before sign in, the application must look for this attribute to see if the user are logged in.
I dont know PHPBB but iam sure it has a module to authenticate to a LDAP server ...

Hi everyone,
(Hi! First post here)
for a site I'm building I'm trying to use one generalised login system for everything on the site (forum / wiki / ftp / ...). I was wondering if anyone has done any work on joining phpBB and MediaWiki.
In a perfect world people would log into PhpBB and an account would be made for MediaWiki with the same login/pass. Whenever a user logs into the site, he should automatically be logged into MediaWiki.
So - has it been done? Google didn't really help me this time.
thanks a lot,
