Karanam Subbarao
Karanam Subbarao Dec 18, 2012

We are currently trying to upgrade Crowd from 2.0.7 -> 2.5.1 along with upgrade of other tools.
Currently our firm has its own authentication mechanism. We would like to use Crowd as basically authorization but authenticate with our authentication.
What should be configuration in Apache Crowd Connector to disable authentication and enable authorization. ? How should I pass the details of the user

Hi Karanam

I'm not quite sure, but if you might using/integrating CROWD with another external authenticator, you'll have to add a valid JAVA class for that. For further details, please use the following link as your guideline:

Anyway, raise a new support ticket for further assistance.
