[Cdash] Is it possible to authenticate user using LDAP when CDash is embedded in other site

[Andreas Schuh]

Hi,

my goal is to embed CDash into ChiliProject/Redmine. This can be done,
for example, using the tab plugin [1] (only downside is that it uses
an iframe). Users would authenticate to ChiliProject/Redmine via LDAP.

My question now is if it would be possible to write a plugin for
ChiliProject/Redmine in Ruby which can automatically authenticate the
user to CDash as well once they logged in to ChiliProject/Redmine
given that both services were set up to use the same LDAP server.

Thanks,
Andreas
