Usage with Active Directory

The add-on provides a separate Security Configuration for using it with Active Directory. Since Active Directory supports its own non-standard authentication options, such as authentication with the domain username in the form user@domain instead of an LDAP distinguished name, Spring Security provides a separate AuthenticationProvider, which is customized for a typical Active Directory setup.

If you are going to work with Active Directory, set the property:

jmix.ldap.use-active-directory-configuration = true

By setting this property, you will use the ActiveDirectoryLdapAuthenticationProvider, which is more suitable for usage with Active Directory.
