Opendocument needs to show LDAP login screen.

Hi all,
Usually user dont want to login in but here they need to because they coming from a different system where logon is not ldap related.
Now I have the opendocument url (i think) but i get the simple bo logon screen, so only name and password but i need it to be in ldap mode.

How and where can i place that?
Thanks all. :+1:

on the login screen the bottom option should be authentication you can use that menu to select ldap

You can change the default option within the OpenDocument configuration on the server. You can do this from the Tomcat/Web apps open document folder, within the WEB-INF subfolder you will find WEB.XML file und change authType to whatever.

Although you can technically only have one default, unless you use JavaScript - I spoke about doing that here:

Essentially you can make all those users log in under a single service account on enterprise or whatever, good for licence restrictions too :slight_smile:

Thanks,

Hi Thomas
Indeed, i happen to run into an old bo-colleague yesterday who told me that its now a one option setting :roll_eyes:
(Didnt have time to update the message yet)
It was possible in xi3.1 to select how to logon in the url-link definition but then they had to go and ‘improved’ it.
Unfortunately i need users to log on as themselves if we use start using this.
So for now we put it on the nice to have list :wink:

Nick,
If you use the launchpad directly then you get the selection box but if you use a hyperlink to a document from outside then it picks the setting in BO and doesnt show you the login selector in xi4.0

But again thanks for the help guys :slight_smile:
