LDAP authentication #36

Is it conceivable to add LDAP authentication?

Certainly conceivable, though not a completely trivial amount of work. The underlying security framework is Apache Shiro which provides for pluggable security "realms". There are LDAP implementations for Shiro, e.g. from Apache ISIS.

The hard part would be testing.
