Integrating Web Server Applications With LDAP Authentication: Case Study on Human Resources Information System of UI

Lightweight directory access protocol (LDAP) accomodates the need of high level of security, single sign-on, and centralized user management. This protocol offers security services and integrated directory with capability of storage management user information in a directory. Therefore at the same time the user can determine application, service, server to be accessed, and user privileges. In this paper, we explain our experience in implementing the authentication mechanism for our human resources information system Web server application by taking identification of user information from LDAP server using LDAP authentication method. We also show the result and performance analyses on the access speed in using LDAP method
