Re: [VuFind-Tech] authenticating to multiple LDAP servers

[Alan R. <ala...@mn...>]

Hello Anna,

We've done this for the Bridge consortia. They consist of 2 colleges
that have their own separate LDAP servers. We make the student pick
their campus and authenticate only against the chosen LDAP server. I'm
pretty sure if they do not choose one it just returns.

ps. If you would like the code could you wait until Monday? busy day
today
