ASP.NET Ichain LDAP Authentication Edir and Active Directory
I am working on a project that requires an expert opinion to see if this is possible to complete and if so, What is the best way?
The project involves coding in ASP.NET which is done in HTTP Commander which authenticates the username and password with AD and then displays the users home drive.
I have various different software packages to take into consideration and also LDAP Authentication.
I will try my best to explain in detail what is required.
The project at present is migration from Novell to Microsoft, Edirectory to Active Directory.
As Ichain does not communicate with Active Directory only Edirectory as it is Novell and not Microsft. I have purchased a software called HTTP Commander which is coded in ASP.NET NTLM windows Authentication to sit in between AD and Ichain LDAP Authentication. But when HTTP and Ichain communicate it re-directs the user and asks them to login again. So i am trying to get an expert opinion to see if it is at all possible to code in ASP.NET/HTTP Commander that will allow the username and password that is first entered to be passed from ichain through HTTP Commander and checked in AD to display the users Home Drive. Remembering that this is an Intranet system with Security a must and know clear text is being sent across the network and the username and password will be encrypted in someway within Ichain LDAP.
I actually need to code in ASP.NET/HTTP Commander software to communicate with Novell/Ichain LDAP Authentication and check the username and password entered by the user to Active Directory and display their home drive.
I hope you can understand this complicated explanation.
If their is any solutions out their and any previous attempts please forward any code that may be helpful.
thank You Beforehand
