[otrs] Agent login via LDAP

5 Mar 2008

      We have successfully configured customer login via LDAP (AD) but we are
still having difficulty with the Agent login.

Can anyone identify the specific parts (entries) in the config.pm that
pertain to Agent LDAP login?

Are the local agent accounts then just paired with an LDAP account with
the same username?  (In other words, to create an agent, would one just
create a user in the front end that has the same username as an LDAP
account; resulting in a local username that just passes authentication
to LDAP?)

Below is a copy of our config.pl:
