SSO on Centos7 with LAMP stack

tonyv

I have osTicket Installed, setup and working.Email is also set up and working IMAP & SMTP, all sounds good right...Wrong, the last missing bit is SSO from my own DB (no Active Director no Microsoft)I have an intranet on a server with its own authentication process and table with users and passwords.osTicket is in the same directory as the intranet ie /var/www/html/support and the DB is also on the same server.So I want the user using the intranet to be able to follow a link to tickets.php with out having to log in again.I've been trying to use HTTP Pass-Through to achieve this without any luck. LDAP seems to only be for Active Directory usersany help would be great, I'm also very competent with tutorials so any links would be great.REMEMBER - i don't use IIS, MS, Active Directory

One second..... this could work I take back what I said Sorry am i missing something here....I said above, I do not use "active directory" and the first steps listed on the link you posted (Which I saw before posting this discussion!!) stats "- You create an osTicket user / staff account by typing in the username from the AD/LDAP user in the field "username" -"So why send this as a solution?

I think that you are confusing AD and LDAP.... They are two different things. AD is Micorsofts customer LDAP implementation. LDAP is the actual protocol (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol), of which there are several different implementations. The AD/LDAP plugin is for using that protocol to talk to a database that contains user information.The HTTP Auth passthrough plugin is for passing credentials through so minimize the amount of times that people need to login (specifically to the webserver). There are a number of threads on the forums which discuss using this. If you have a specific question we will do our best to answer you. I have no idea if you can configure Apache/NGINX to use a non LDAP data source... but you probably can with the appropriage mods installed. This article may get you started and pointed in the right direction.http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6213028/setting-up-mod-proxy-to-pass-http-authentication-to-server

There might be better articles then that one I linked. It was just one I skimmed that seems to cover what you were looking to do. If you find a better one, please by all mean post it hear (as I'll end up reading it).
