Hi,
In our LDAP I have a userID = "aagarwal" existing. My application
authenticates successfully when i provide username as "aagarwal" or
even as "*A*agarwal". Is there a way to ensure case-sensitive
authentcation?
In documentation i see some plugins :
Case Exact String Syntax Plug-in and
Case Ignore String Syntax Plug-in
Any idea if these are to be used to enforce case sensitive
authentication? If yes then how to configure these?
I would strongly discourage you
from using the plugins to do this. The
problem is that the attribute "uid" is not case sensitive. You could
hack the server to make this case sensitive, but the better option is to
use another attribute. Either find one or create your own e.g. uidcs or
something like that. If you just really, really, really must have the
LDAP standard "uid" attribute be case sensitive, and I have not been
able to discourage you enough from doing this, then you can hack the
schema file 00core.ldif and change the syntax to use the case sensitive
string syntax.

Ankur
