How could extract username from auth_User like 'domain\username'

[efcjunior]

The auth_user or remote_user variables returns something like 'domain\username'. That's way I can't use the WindowsAuthenticate. Is there anyway to extract username from these variables?

[stevebauman]

[$domain, $username] = explode('\\', $_SERVER['auth_user']);

Does this answer your question?

[$domain, $username] = explode('\\', $_SERVER['auth_user']);

Yep! But which class should I put it ?

Thank you.

I'd say wherever you need it... I'm not exactly sure what you're attempting to implement, I'd need more information.

I'm trying to configure SSO like this:

protected $middlewareGroups = [
'web' => [
// ...
\LdapRecord\Laravel\Middleware\WindowsAuthenticate::class,
],
];

and:

Route::get('/', LoginController::class)->middleware('web');

But, when I call var_dump(Auth::user()); from LoginController it returns null.

I've already tested AUTH DATABASE and it worked perfectly, I'm a bit lost how to configure SSO. That's why I think the problem could be the AUTH_USER format.

The format you've shown is the standard SSO format. The included middleware will parse it for you 👍

I think the WindowsAuthenticate is not loading because when I do this I got error Class 'App\Providers\WindowsAuthenticate' not found

// app/Providers/AuthServiceProvider.php

/**

• Register any authentication / authorization services.

• @return void
  */
  public function boot()
  {
  $this->registerPolicies();

  WindowsAuthenticate::serverKey('PHP_AUTH_USER');
  }

You have to import the class:

use LdapRecord\Laravel\Middleware\WindowsAuthenticate;

// ...

public function boot()
{
    $this->registerPolicies();

    WindowsAuthenticate::serverKey('PHP_AUTH_USER');
}

public function boot()
{

    WindowsAuthenticate::serverKey('PHP_AUTH_USER');
}

Oh! Sorry. That's true. What's the right way to verify if the user is authenticated on Controller ? When I assign the WindowsAuthenticate middleware to a route and it fails, the request reach out the controller restricted.

[stevebauman]

Use the auth middleware included in Laravel, either on your route, or your controller constructor:

Route::middleware('auth')->get('dashboard', [DashboardController::class, 'index']);

class DashboardController
{
    public function __construct()
    {
        $this->middleware('auth');
    }
}

Hi @stevebauman

It worked perfectly! Now my application has configured DATABASE AUTH + SSO together.

Could you help me to figure out these situations:

1. Is there anyway to add auth_user variable in development environment using php artisan serve ?
