I am in a project where the client wants the login in the CMS admin to be done through Active Directory. The CMS we are using is Kooboo based on aspnet MVC.

Has anyone ever done anything like this? Do you have any idea how?

  • You want to merge the two types of authentication or use only AD for this?

  • Taking advantage, the kooboo forum has a question about it, but the answer is not very encouraging.

  • Do you want to merge the two authentication types or use only AD for this? The main idea is to use only AD for this purpose.

  • Yes... I saw this topic on the kooboo forum. But it didn’t help much.

  • Well, by having open source, you can implement this Feature manually. The server you will be installed on is on the same network as the AD or you have contracted a hosting that is not interconnected?

  • It’s not on the same network. But I already have the client’s AD access credentials. With this I created a test application by selecting as authentication mode the AD in Visual Studio and then the login worked normally. That, I’ll have to take the Kooboo code and give it a go. But I was wondering if anyone’s been through it yet.

  • The authentication part should be the same as the test application you did. The problem will be changing the Attributes and Helpers for such change. This greatly impacts on the permissions part of the site. At this link you can see a little how the Kooboo permission works, which is divided into Area, Group and Name.

  • But this is looking at the surface. To make such a change it is necessary to look deeper into the code and see the impacts of each change.
