 Hi all

I was asked this morning if we can authenticate Hobbit users against our
company LDAP or NIS.
We have multiple hobbit "administrators" and it would be good to keep track
of who acknowledged or updated issues, but maintaining the passwords
manually will be a pain.

Has anybody done this before?
If so, how?
