@girish Last time I checked there was one iirc, I had it installed but not configured (because I didn’t know how at the time). I remember following the forking history through 3–4 repos before finding the most current one.

@yusf @girish just had a quick look and it looks like this may be most recent one https://github.com/ink-blot/nodebb-plugin-node-ldap
@jdaviescoates @girish this looks indeed a good solution!

@imc67 Indeed, it's atleast a good start. It does have some strange code I need to look into like https://github.com/ink-blot/nodebb-plugin-node-ldap/blob/master/index.js#L74 . Why LDAP code has murmur hash, I have no clue.

@yusf said in NodeBB + Ldap = internal BB?:
plugin doesn't work as it fails to activate
Correction: The plugin does activate, but there's no sign of its settings pane.
From the plugin readme:
It is possible that your linux distribution may be missing some dependencies for this plugin to work. If that is the case, try:
sudo apt-get update && apt-get install -y ldap-utils dnsutilsWhat's the status of these packages in Cloudron, @girish?

@yusf Not really, haven't had time to look into it. Maybe in the next 2-3 weeks. Cloudron 6 is the important priority now.

I want to login to nodebb by using LDAP, which plugin should I use?
I have tried nodebb-plugin-office-ldap and nodebb-plugin-sso-ldap, and I can't solve my problem very well. -

@girish the one I shared above https://github.com/ink-blot/nodebb-plugin-node-ldap is also a little bit old (the last commit was nearly 12 months ago), but it's newer than those two.
