ldap Authentification

[valpo]

I am trying to enable ldap-auth. Following the documentation I've created a new docker image including the ep_ldapauth_ng plugin. I think the plugin is working because it complained about a self signed certificate (using ldaps://, so I switched to ldap:// for the start).

The container will be started using:

docker run -d --name etherpad --restart=no \ 
       ...
	-e REQUIRE_AUTHENTICATION="true" \
	-e REQUIRE_AUTHORIZATION="true" \
	-e LOGLEVEL=DEBUG \
	-e SOFFICE=/usr/bin/soffice \
	-v $(pwd)/settings.json:/opt/etherpad-lite/settings.json:ro \
	etherpad

settings.json contains is a copy of the settings-docker-template with the added ldap-config.

The container starts, the admin-page shows the loaded plugin. But the user does not see any login screen, he/she can start creating pads without entering any credentials.

The plugin seems to be a bit older, latest commit was about 3 years ago. Is anyone using this plugin successfully?
