The Active Directory functionality is currently in redevelopment. In this phase it is being more cleanly separated from the core framework such that a TRUE Authentication Provider model can be supported. Mike and Charles are working on this project together with assistance from some other potential Authentication Provider project owners. When the separation is complete a number of additional new providers should come available shortly after.
I'm pleased to announce that the 01.00.03 version of the Active Directory Provider has completed the DNN Release Tracker process and has been released. You can download the provider and the document from the Authentication Provider project page (http://www.dotnetnuke.com/Products/Development/Forge/Authentication/Downloads/tabid/852/Default.aspx). Changes/Fixes for this release: ACD-3084 Authentication Configuration.ResetConfig()-does not clear Provider from cache ACD-4641 AD Module Does Not Detect Membership of Nested Groups ACD-5563 Passed Parameters Lost When WindowsSignin.aspx is called ACD-6416 Displayname gets always set, even if a rule is setup ACD-6451 AD Provider Cannot Be Disabled ACD-6452 WindowSignin Proce ...

The short summary is that you shouldn't upgrade to DNN 4.8.0 if you need to use the Active Directory provider. Read More »
Just a short note to let everyone know that I submitted a new version of the provider to the Release Tracker yesterday (http://www.dotnetnuke.com/Products/Development/ProjectReleaseTracking/tabid/997/Default.aspx). I also got the documentation done for the 01.00.00 version of the provider. It can be found in the Project's Download Area under Other Files (http://www.dotnetnuke.com/Products/Development/Projects/ProviderAuthentication/tabid/840/Default.aspx). Read More »
For those of you patiently awaiting for the source code your wait is over. Read More »
There are a few considerations or changes when using the newly separated from the core AD Provider. Read More »
I just returned from a three day camping trip with my son's grade six class in the foothills of the Canadian Rockies to a mailbox full of people having problems with Active Directory. It was quite a shock to the system as it's been a long time since I was totally without internet access for more than a day. It looks like a change somewhere in the core has broken AD websites that use full authentication (the authentication line is uncommented in the web.config) but mixed-mode authentication still works (users log into the DNN site using DOMAIN\Username and their AD password or use a link to the windowssignin.ascx) in single portal installs (multiple parent/child portals is another matter). I've been able to recreate it on a test site but then was able to fix it by deleting the AD user from the DNN site and then visiting again. Once the account was recreated everything worked fine. However, this is not an ideal solution (deleting all current users) on a portal that has thousands of ... Read More »

Hello everyone. After many discussions with Joe Brinkman and Scott Willhite about the Active Directory provider I decided it was time to "put up or shut up" and applied to be the Project Lead. Imagine my surprise when the answer was "Yes". Seeing as this is my first blog here I guess I should tell you a little about myself. I've worked with computers doing programming on a personal level since the very early 80's. On a professional level I've worked in an IT position at a Technical College in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada for the past 10 or so years where I do a bit of everything (computer repair, server administration, programming, etc). I discovered DotNetNuke back in it's early days (I believe it was version 1.0.6) and quickly became a convert. When I'm not working on the compu ... Read More »
