There are various ways of managing user authentication:
- Email-based authentication
- Manual accounts only
- No authentication
- PAM (Pluggable Authentication Modules)
- Shibboleth
- Use a CAS server (SSO)
- Use a POP3 server
- Use an LDAP server
- Use NTLM/Integrated Authentication (3rd party plugin)
The login page
Depending upon the authentication method (i.e. not applicable for email authentication) login instructions may be easily added. Alternatively, an alternate login URL may be added - please check the discussion Customising the log in page for further details.
