[turba] auto login

[John Green]

Thanks for the reply Eric -

What I would like to do is bypass the horde login screen altogether, and
have users go directly to an address book listing.  A guest or anonymous
login would work well, I just haven't found any documentation on how to set
this up.  I've managed to get it authenticating to both cyrus-imap and ldap,
but it needs to be simpler for the moment.

have them login at all. For read only access this might work, depending on
how private your data is.

This is what I need; can you give me some direction on how to do this?  I
apologize if this is something terribly obvious and I'm just no-braining it.

Appreciate the help  --  John

Correct.

What do you mean by automatically log in?  You can simply set the module
to allow guest logins if you don't want to have them login at all. For read
only access this might work, depending on how private your data is.

Or, if you just want the horde login to be the same as the openldap login,
this can be configured easy enough also.

Or, if you have already logged in to some other system, you can try to
use that "single signin" for Horde also.  How to do that would depend
on your external authentication system.

Can't say as I really don't know what it is you are trying to do.  Please
follow up with a better description of what it is you are trying to
accomplish.
