We have our clients login to workstations using NIS.
Is it possible to use a NIS server for your security options/login/access in servoy, or is their a way to pass data every so often?

thanks for your time everyone.

We plan to support LDAP and NIS in future versions.

In the moment we searching a DB replacement for our 4D,Filmaker enviroment, and I think Servoy is the best for us! We are only missing
this NIS and LDAP feature! Will it be available in the next Servoy release?

It is already possible to do this by writing your own plugin (not very difficult). If you're interested to have it built-in to Servoy you can contact our sales department at sales@servoy.com.

Okay, I am new to Servoy, but it is coming up on two years now since this LDAP/NIS thread got started- and has this been solved? I cannot find any mention in the paper documentation we just received with our Developer kits, or anything newer in Servoy Talk pages.

Is the plug-in so easy that this issue doesn't come up? Please direct me to where I can get the LDAP plug-in. Thanks!

I'm not sure what you mean with 'issue being solved'. As I have mentioned before it takes little time to write your own plugin to integrate with any authentication method and if you would like it to become standard servoy functionality you can contact us at sales@servoy.com for more information.

Is there an example/skeleton plugin available?

Is there a list of current, planned and possible user/group/etc information sources?

Thanks,
Neale.

Neale, you can use the mail plugin as an example. The source code is included.

A how to can be found here: http://developer.servoy.com/generic.jsp?taxonomy_id=299

These two got me going together with a book and some java resources on the web...

Have fun
