Hi eXisting users, Has anyone attempted to hook up eXist's security to Atlassian Crowd? If so, I'd appreciate some getting-started advice. (Crowd provides Single-sign-on for Atlassian apps like Confluence and JIRA. ) At a guess, this will probably be easier with the new security features in trunk - but I'm using 1.4.1 r1475. Thanks, Alister. |

What exactly do you want to have? As Dmitriy mentions - we have pluggable security modules in eXist-db for user management, we current support LDAP, Microsoft Active Directory and OpenID, so I would guess it should be `trivial` to add a module for Atlassian Crowd (im not familiar with it), if someone is interested... However most things these days support an LDAP backend, so if Atlassian support LDAP then so does eXist-db - and, well thats all you need ;-) -- Adam Retter eXist Developer { United Kingdom } ad...@ex... irc://irc.freenode.net/existdb |

Thanks Adam & Dmitriy I will have to wait (expectantly) for the next version of eXist. If I have time, I'll try out trunk to see whether it can work with Crowd. I'm working for ConservationArk.org.au and so we have "community" licenses for the Atlassian products - we use Confluence for our Intranet and are beginning to use JIRA to manage "issues" around the Zoo. My in-house clients will be moving their database needs into a system built on eXist - and I'd like them to be able to use the same login info and group-management for all these apps (which is what Crowd provides). There used to be a plugin for Crowd that provided LDAP support - but that seems to have disappeared. These will be my starting points: http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/CROWD/Integrating+Crowd+with+Apache http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/CROWD/Integrating+Crowd+with+a+Custom+Application Just another little project - I wish I had some staff!
