Authentications
Type: Authentications
Parent: WebCFG
Container for different authentication sets, used to describe possible
ways of how users have to authenticate for being able to open a
configuration.
Any combination of the following sets is allowed:
- simpleset
Configure a username and a password. - pop3set
Authentication is done against a given POP3 server. - imapset
Authentication is done against a given IMAP server. - sshset
Authentication is done using the SSH protocol against a remote host. - ldapset
Authentication is done against a LDAP server (e.g. a W2K3 server)
Every set may only occur once. If none is given, no login is needed.
This way it is easy to integrate already existing authentication systems like LDAP, AD (e.g. an Exchange server, W2K3 server), *nix and so on.
