Hello all,
it would be nice if zabbix_frontend can do something with external authentication. Maybe zabbix can use $_AUTH[] array and use some user mapping (stored in db).
If zabbix know this, somebody can do auth in apache which know many methods suitable for users. Zabbix only either remaps user to somebody else or automaticaly creates new user with some defaults. Or in simplest case (which is enaught for start), it will accept only user stored in zabbix db too. But I do not have to manage passwords twoo times and we can easily implement zabbix to our intranet.

Thanx !

I'd also cast a vote for that feature.

We're using central authentication via CAS and permitting apache to auth against zabbix would bring us single sign on.
