Authenticating against multiple (separate) domains

Authenticating against multiple (separate) domains

Number of replies: 2

Hi everyone, I've had a quick search around the forums and online but I cant see a definite answer to the following:


We have two separate Active Directory domains which unlike most peoples setups are in separate forests on separate servers with no single global catalog, there is a trust relationship between the domains and machines are allowed to authenticate against either server, however Moodle is a different story - we can't seem to think of a way to get it to authenticate against both domains simultaneously. Does anyone else have this setup or any suggestions as to how we could achieve this? 


Thanks,
Gary

Google clone ldap server moodle.  You need to clone the plugin for your second domain.  There is a post with patches for each version of moodle - you should be able to find it pretty easily.

Hi Emma, thanks for your reply, I had a look at that thread but couldn't seem to make it work with 3.3.2, should it be ok? I searched the thread but the most recent version I can see is 3.3.1, I'm guessing there won't be much difference between the two but when I'm using the patch script provided towards the bottom of the thread and it fails with:
