Merge basic pGina stuff into Privacy Idea Windows CP?

@EdbO

I have worked with samba (3) as a domain controller

Use Samba 4. This way you have a complete active directory (kerberos)

@EdbO

is it possible to create hooks into the CP which hands off data to a mechanism which can do something with it?

I do not know if this is possible but I also do not think that this is necessary. Since you have all these features if you have a correct domain and not running all the logic on the client.

@EdbO

the user doesn’t exist on the client yet, so a new user and home directory etc should be created

This happens automatically if the windows machine is a member of your samba 4 domain.

@EdbO

But can I use the current Privacy Idea CP for ldap authentication?

No. At the end of the day the credential provider performs a windows authentication. And this is usually a local user authentication or a kerberos authentication in the domain.

But we will think about, if there is any use case, that would make sense for us.
