ETH User Plugin

Plugin that allows to send data from forms via mail.

Introduction

This plugin is used to enable authentication using nethz accounts. Both LDAPS and AD authentication are supported but must be configured in the apache configuration. It is responsible to translate the REMOTEUSER apache variable into a TWiki login. Specifically it

• Strips the @D.ETHZ.CH domain specification if Kerberos authentication is used
• Prohibits admin access for the nethz admin account.

Optionally this plugin also enforces that the authenticated user must have change rights to WikiUsers when the register binary is invoked.

Plugin Configuration

The configuration for this plugin is changed via configure.
