How to Get Additional Info from LDAP

I have an application that is using LDAP authentication. Its working great but I would like to know if its possible to extract additional information about the user at the the point of authentication. For example when the user logs in and is authenticated it would be nice to be able to get their email address, phone, etc. at that time. Is this possible with the existing authentication scheme? I didn't see anything mentioned in the Help text.
Thanks.
David

Tom,
Have a look at the code I posted in this thread -
Re: help with htmldb_ldap.is_member function
Whilst that thread is more related to using the is_member function, the code I posted shows how you can query the attributes for a particular DN in an LDAP server.
So....I don't want to put the cart before the horse, but if it helps your case to make Apex (as it's known now rather than HTMLDB) "the winner", then I would stress that this feature is definitely achievable (but how difficult it is will depend on your exact requirements).
In short....definitely do-able....

  • How i get user info from ldap using java after authenticating user with SSO

    Hi
    I have one jsp/bean application as a partner application with SSO.
    It works fine.
    Now i need to get other attributes of user from LDAP who has logged into the application through SSO.
    using SSO java APIs i only get username, userDN, subscriber info.
    To get user's other attribute i have to user LDAP APIs for that i have to create on Directory Context, for the same i need userpassword.
    so here i my question, how do i get user password after he has logged in thro SSO.
    regards..
    and thanking u in advance
    samir

    Valentina,
    there's no way to get the password value from the directory (it's one way). Of course you can get the hashed (MD4,MD5,SHA-1) base64 encoded value (i.e. the value you see in OiD) but not the 'password'.

    You can build one custom lookup control. Refer to the following post

    Hi,
    I am using WLS default authentication to protect my JSP pages. Can someone tell
    me if it is possible to add more fields to the default login box (in addition
    to login and password boxes, I want to ask user the department name). In additional,
    can WLS propogate this information (department name) along with other security
    credentails to other J2EE components such as EJBs? In my EJBs I want to be able
    to get the department name that user provided during login and then use that for
    conditional business logic.
    Any insights on this subject will be greatly appreciated.
    TIA,
    -NealYou can't do this with the default simple authentication. That can only handle a
    username / password combination.
    You should be able to do this with JAAS. You could write a LoginModule that
    populates the department as a Principal or public Credential on the Subject in
    addition to the normal authentication. You would have to do a callback handler
    that passed through the department info to it.
    This link has more on WLS's stab at JAAS:
    http://e-docs.bea.com/wls/docs61/security/prog.html#1039659
    Once you have associated the Subject with the access control context by invoking
    a doAs() you should be able to get it back at any point with
    Subject.getSubject(AccessController.getContext()) to get access to the
    department info.
    It will all be a bit of a chore, mind.

    Hi all
    I am using Adobe Flash Media Streaming Server 3.5 but I can't find any output file (fx a xml file) that I can pull out info from and use on my website via a PHP or ASP script. It could be nice - in the website - to retrieve info like "online users attending", "running / streaming state" (online or offline) and other relevant info about the streaming, so I on the website can display how many that are online when a webtv event is streaming.

    Hi Julián,
    in fact, I've never worked with BSP iViews and so I don't know if there is a direct way to achieve what you want. Maybe you should ask within BSP forum...
    A possibility would be to create a proxy iView around the BSP iView (in fact: before the BSP AppIntegrator component) which reads the user names and passes this as application params to the BSP component. But this is

  • My computer crashed and I no longer have the itunes library. i get an error msg that my iphone is synced to another library - how can I get the info from the phone to the itunes library?

    my computer crashed and I no longer have the itunes library. i get an error msg that my iphone 3g is synced to another library - how can I get the info from the phone to the itunes library without losing everything? How do I delete old audiobooks from my iphone?

    You can transfer itunes purchases:  File>Devices>Transfer Purchases
    The iphone is not a storage/backup device.  The sync is one way - computer to iphone.  The exception is itunes purchases.
    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer.  Use your backup copy to put everything back.

  • How do I get my info from my iPhone to my ipad2

    How do I get the info from my iphone4 to my iPad 2?  I synched it to iTunes but I'm only able to retrieve songs. I need my apps and pictures?

    Do you have Sync Apps selected under the Apps tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes?
    If not, before doing so with your iPhone connected, at the iTunes menu bar go to File and select Transfer Purchases From - the name of your iPhone. After confirming all apps on your iPhone are in your iTunes library, select Sync Apps under the Apps tab and make sure all apps are selected below followed by a sync.
    Now after downloading/installing an app direct with your iPhone, the app will be copied to your iTunes library library automatically the first time you sync your Phone with iTunes after doing so.
    Follow this by selecting Sync Apps under the Apps tab for your iPad sync preferences with iTunes and selecting the apps below that you want installed on your iPad followed by a sync.
    Photos/videos in your iPhone's Camera Roll can and should be imported by your computer as with any other digital camera which is not handled by iTunes.
    After the photos are imported by your computer, you can transfer the photos to your iPad via the iTunes sync/transfer process which is selected under the Photos tab for your iPad sync preferences with iTunes.

    I have a new iMac running iTunes 10.4 in OS 10.6.8, and a new Mac Air running iTunes 10.4 in Lion.  I was able to transfer all my music etc. from the iMac onto the Air, but cannot figure out how to get the Playlists from the iMac to the Air.  iTunes Help says File >Library >Export playlist and choose XML, or to save a copy of all your playlists, File > Library > Export Library, "the Exported info is saved in XML format."  Then it says, "to import an iTunes playlist, File > Library > Import Playlist".  Now I am assuming I do that import part on the Air, but when I try it doesn't recognize anything that can be imported - what am I missing??? Aside from a clue...

    Thanks, Jim, for taking the time, but the reply is unfortunately vague in the exact area of my confusion!  "you need to copy that file to your new computer..."  Well, the Import/Export instructions make it seem as if the two computers should be able to communicate this file thru wifi, but that's the linkage I can't seem tocreate with Import/Export.  Should I instead email a copy to myself (thats what applecare suggested)?  Copy it to and from a thumb drive?  But then place the file where?  And the article was helpful, but should I be trying to move the Library file or the Library.xml file (as iTunes Help suggests)?  Sorry to be so clueless about it...I suppose I buy Apple in the hopes of not having to think about this stuff, which approach seems not to be serving me well. Thanks again for your time!

  • How to get the values from popup window to mainwindow

    HI all,
       I want to get the details from popup window.
          i have three input fields and one search button in my main window. when i click search button it should display popup window.whenever i click on selected row of the popup window table ,values should be visible in my main window input fields.(normal tables)
       now i am able to display popup window with values.How to get the values from popup window now.
       I can anybody explain me clearly.
    Thanks&Regards
    kranthi

    Hi Kranthi,
    Every webdynpro component has a global controller called the component controller which is visible to all other controllers within the component.So whenever you want to share some data in between 2 different views you can just make it a point to use the component controller's context for the same. For your requirement (within your popups view context) you will have have to copy the component controllers context to your view. You then will have to (programmatically) fill this context with your desired data in this popup view. You can then be able to read this context from whichever view you want. I hope that this would have made it clear for you. Am also giving you an [example|http://****************/Tutorials/WebDynproABAP/Modalbox/page1.htm] which you can go through which would give you a perfect understanding of all this. In this example the user has an input field in the main view. The user enters a customer number & presses on a pushbutton. The corresponding sales orders are then displayed in a popup window for the user. The user can then select any sales order & press on a button in the popup. These values would then get copied to the table in the main view.
    Regards,
    Uday

  • How to get a formula from the user from a text box in a webpage

    Hi. I would like to know how to get the formula from the user who enters in a textbox. This formula can have any number of variables starting with a and goes on.
    The complexity of the formula can go upto sin, cos, ln, exp. Also user enters the minimum and maximum values of these variables. Based on a specific algorithm (which I use) I would calculate a *set of values, say 10, for each of these variables, substitute in the formula and based on the result of this formula, I select ONE suitable  value for each of the variables.
    I don't know how to get this formula (which most likely to be different each time) and substitute the values *which I found earlier.
    Kindly help me out in this issue.
    Thanks

    The textbox is the easy part. It's no different than getting a String parameter out of an HTTP request.
    The hard part is parsing the String into a "formula" for evaluation. You'll have to write a parser or find one.
    Google for "Java math expression parser" and see what you get.
    Or write your own with JavaCC.
