Can Openbravo be integrated to active directory for list/authentication?
From R2.30 ahead, Openbravo supports pluggable authentication for integration with central authentication services. So it is possible to integrate Openbravo with active directory to authenticate users but you will need to develop a plugin in java to achieve this integration. If you wanted to develop this plugin, you have to create first a new authentication java class that implements the interface “org.openbravo.authentication.AuthenticationManager”. An example is the default authentication manager that is implemented in the java class “org.openbravo.authentication.basic.DefaultAuthenticationManager”. And second add a new context param in the file web.xml to use this authentication manager. For example if your authentication class is “org.yourorganization.YourAuthenticationManager” then add:
