There are two things that you'll get from Active Directory; authentication (is a username/password correct), and authorization (do they belong to a proper group).

Tuomas Posts 9	It is only possible to use one LDAP source with TypingMaster Intra. This is due to the limitations in the Tomcat server, which allows for only one LDAP source. However, TypingMaster Intra supports logging in with both LDAP and the internal authentication simultaneously. I would suggest that in your case, you set the LDAP for students and direct them to the LDAP login link (usually in the form http://yourserver.com/tmintra/ldaplogin ). Then the teachers can log in with the normal login link ( http://yourserver.com/tmintra/login ) You can create the teacher accounts after logging in as an administrator and you can also instruct teachers that they can set their password to the same as their LDAP password. The passwords are always hashed in TypingMaster Intra, so it is safe to use the same password. edited by Tuomas on 2/6/2009 -- Best Regards, Tuomas T. TypingMaster Team
