Is there a fully automated way to authentication a user using IE8+ with Apache without the user having to enter any form of credentials? Running IIS is not really an option even tho i'm running Windows.
I've found some Perl based solutions that should work but i could only get it to work on *Nix with a LOT of fuzzing around.
I'm currently using authnz_ldap_module which works great, but the users are really cranky and annoyed by having to put in their user-id and password for each new session that they open.
Any ideas?
I've been having the same problem myself today after eventually getting the
mod_authnz_ldap
module to work.From my research thus far, I gather you can't do seamless signon with the
mod_authnz_ldap
module and you'll have to usemod_auth_sspi
instead. I've tried this out and it seems to work as expected (on Internet Explorer anyway - you can also configure Firefox to pass through by modifying thenetwork.automatic-ntlm-auth.trusted-uris
key).Here's the steps:
Now restart Apache.
Unfortunately, after all that it's no good for me as a solution as I have multiple LDAP servers to authenticate against, but hopefully this will help you.
