This extension allows you to import and authenticate Typo3 users (frontend & backend) from OpenLDAP servers. You can also synchronize the LDAP users with any other database table. All the mapping process is done visually, through flexforms.
I decided to write this extension a long time ago, after having tested the existing LDAP extensions. The first goal was to simplify to configuration and the mapping process, by using dynamic flexforms sections, and to improve the usability of the import process.
This extension can only be used with OpenLDAP servers, and I don't plan to add support for other kind of LDAP servers.
If you're a Typo3 developer, and if you like the way the mapping is done, just feel free the take my code. It's here to serve. ; )
