I have multiple containers where users are located. I'm reading the howto for AD integration and it mentions having this scenerio but it's a little vague to me how one points to multiple containers??? 'Replace [base_dn] with the DN of where your customer users are location in the AD tree. If all customer users are located under a "People" container, specify that as the base_dn for Customer Auth, ie. "ou=People, dc=example, dc=com". If you have users in multiple containers, you may want to add multiple LDAP sources. Feel free to use $Self->{CustomerUser1} throughout $Self->{CustomerUser10}.' I have several ou's with people (and there's spaces between the names). I also have questions about how to connect to the database? '... # to use an external database # DSN => 'DBI:odbc:yourdsn', # DSN => 'DBI:mysql:database=customerdb;host=customerdbhost', # User => '', Password => '',' The database is local. I had already created some user's without using LDAP but how do you add user's once LDAP is enabled, as the root user is not going to be in the AD user's list?

Hi,
Integration with ldap (or AD) in our site was really simple and easy. Is it worth it? Well, I lost 15 minutes, and have 2000 users on AD. Even if you only have 5 users on AD, it's still worth it, because you can have more than 1 BD per installation.
Just my 1EUR.
Have a nice weekend,

Hello Everyone,
I'm at the experimentation phase of OTRS and would like to know if it is worth integrating with Active Directory? The majority of the customers will external so I do not believe the customer integration would be worth while. I would like to hear from those who have worked with this configuration.
Thanks,
James
