Configure Drupal login using LDAP / Active Directory
Drupal LDAP Login module allows your LDAP / Window Active Directory users to login to Drupal using their LDAP / Active Directory ( AD ) credentials. In addition to LDAP, this module also allows you to login using NTLM and Kerberos. We provide Drupal LDAP/AD SSO login module which is compatible with Drupal 7, Drupal 8, and as well as Drupal 9.
It allows users to authenticate against various LDAP implementations like Microsoft Active Directory, OpenLDAP, OpenDS, FreeIPA, Synology,
and other directory systems as well as perform authentication using NTLM and Kerberos.
