How does Xerte authentication work if integrated with a LMS like Moodle, for example? Any working example will be greatly appreciated.

I use Samba 4 AD account provider (same settigns as with Active Directory)
Under LDAP settings:

The ldap host is:
ldaps://hostname.domain.tld

The ldap port is:
636
(389 if you use LDAP instead of LDAPS)

The ldap password is
your-bind-password
(password of the Samba4 account you created to bind other applications with Samba4)

The ldap base is
dc=domain;dc=tld
(If you only want to search the directory tree in the users OU, add a cn=users; in front.)

The ldap bind is
cn=bindaccount,cn=users,dc=domain,dc=tld

The LDAP main filter is
cn (if you want to log in with user@domain.tld, use sAMAccountName)

The LDAP second filter is
cn

Hope this helps.
