Re: [galaxy-dev] Connecting LDAP with Galaxy

Hi,

...

I was reading a bit about this (I manage a LDAP server, but I am far from a specialist) and the format is actually too flexible: Any UTF-8 encoding with up to 64 characters.

I suspect basic punctation marks would be enough. Though I could see a Windows based SSO system (AD) accepting spaces and maybe even that being a usual convention (just speculating here).

But _s and .s are probably very common across existing installations.

Let's start with that at first :) Do you have time to work on this or can create a tracking issue?

I do not have time to work on this, but I created the issue some time ago: https://github.com/galaxyproject/galaxy/issues/2593 Tiago
