Hi,

We are a school running NW6.5.
We want to have a staff and a student intranet.

There will need to be security for each site. Can we have a login screen
where a student/teacher logs into using their Novell login. Ideally
without typing the full context, so just like the Groupwise WebAccess page.

We will want to have both sites accessable from the internet provided they
have permission.


Many Thanks, Mike.

You can do this with LDAP authentication using PHP. We do it here, we
just have a context drop down box.

Can you tell me how to go about setting this up?

Will the students have to do the full context? or just username?

..<username>.yearlevel.student.rootcontainer is so long!!

Thanks in advance.
Mike.

Good evening Mike,
LDAP can search sub containers below a specified root object, but unless
all your students/teachers have unique (cn) names then this isn't going
to work using LDAP and the standard Apache mod_auth_ldap method. If you
use a programmable login box it should be simple enough to pick lower
container names from drop-down boxes.
You might also try this question in the php-dev forum at Novell.
