Authenticate users against an LDAP server and automatically provision them to the MyBB user database.

Project Details

Do you want to use OpenLDAP, eDirectory or your corporate Active Directory for MyBB user authentication? This plugin is for you!

With this plugin, user authentication is performed using LDAP bind operations. After a successful LDAP authentication, the user's details are retrieved from the LDAP server and stored as a new user in the MyBB database.

Allows for user scoping based on their LDAP attributes; for example, only allow users that are members of a certain group.



This plugin is based on an old module called mybbldap which had been adapted in this thread to work on MyBB version 1.8.x.

Compared to the old code, the PHP LDAP handling has been improved, and many more things are now configurable through the settings page.
