Default LDAP and Active Directory - 07-23-2009 , 11:13 AM






Due to PCI compliancy requirements, we have a request from one of our
clients about integration with Active Directory.

Has anyone successfully tied Paradox into Windows Active Directory? and can
you point us in the right direction (resources) for researching and
integrating our application with Windows to provide stricter login into our
app?

TIA
Shawn

Rick Kelly had a LSL and DLL that one could easily integrate into an
existing Paradox app to provide AD visibility, for instance, to restrict
module access by AD Group membership.

Thanks, Larry!

Where could one find that?

I just found Rick's website at Crooit....I poked around a little but didn't
find what you referenced...maybe I'm looking in the wrong place?

Also, we're looking to integrate with AD. In our application built on
Paradox 10, utilizing runtime, we have our own password management
procedures. We looking to migrate away from that, and into AD, but don't
know where to start.

Has anywone done this already? Or possibly know of resources to launch this
endeavor?

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide!

I guess he only ever posted it here. Check out the following post (and note
that there were two versions and you want the second one posted):

I did exactly that a few years ago - modify an existing application to
enforce access control by AD group membership rather than the internal
mechanism maintained within the app.

Try contacting Rick to ask about it.

I'm not aware of anyone else who's done it. If Rick doesn't have
something you can buy, you'd need a DLL or OCX that Paradox is capable
of using to interact with AD's flavor of LDAP.
