Hi All,

I'm looking to integrate LDAP (Active Directory) authentication into our YAF.NET Version 3.2.2 forum. Our goal is to enable our Active Directory users to log in with a single ID across our system.

Could you please suggest the best approach for achieving this integration? Any advice or guidance on the steps involved would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance for your help!

I cant help much. I dont use LDAP and i dont have the option to test it.

YAF uses ASP.NET Identity. So technically you only need to override the UserStore and RoleStore which handles the user login and role management.
