I'd like to extend the Auth component in such a way as to be able to
use LDAP to log users in; basically, my approach would be to
authenticate the user via LDAP, then, if the user is valid and
properly authenticated, it would put them into the user database that
Auth uses and would hand control back to Auth from there. It looks
something like this:
<?php
App::import('Component', 'Auth');
class LdapAuth extends Auth {
var $ldapModel = 'LdapUser';
function startup(&$controller) {
$username = $controller->data[$this->userModel][$this-
>fields['username']];
$password = $controller->data[$this->userModel][$this-
>fields['password']];
$res = $this->preauthUser($username, $password);
if (!$res) {
//set password to blank to ensure the auth fails
$controller->data[$this->userModel][$this->fields['password']] =
'';
}
//Continue with standard auth process
return parent::startup($controller);
}
//... rest of class here
}
?>
However, when I try to use this component in my pages, I get the
following error:
Fatal error: Class 'Auth' not found in C:\...\app\controllers
\components\ldap_auth.php on line 4
Is there something I'm doing wrong that makes it so that Auth isn't
included in my file? I thought App::import() would take care of that,
but apparently it's not.
Thanks!
