I found this in the documentaion in the LDAP Backend Auth section
Please note, that in version 1.x you have to create a db entry for the ldap user. This is done automatically on first login in versions < 1.1
Why is that so? I was so happy to discover that I can use LDAP for my passwords, no I have to admin my users again. Is it possible to switch automatic user creation to on?
User auth. and user info is different.
-=> auth. is just for checking the access
-=> user info is just the login, name, email, ....
In OTRS 1.x it's not possible to use a LDAP tree for agent user info (need to be in the database) but for agent user auth.
well actually the user gets created with some values taken from the ldap on first login. The user has to re-login, tho. I startet to code some support for all info to be placed in ldap, however at the moment priorities have shifted, so I have no longer time to look at it. However, I hope to get back to it asap, but I cannot promise.
OTRS 2.0 will support LDAP for agent user info.
Wiktor implemented the automatic database entry for agent users on fist login.
Wiktor: Maybe you can tell us a little bit about that!?
PS: OTRS 1.x supports customer-user-auth and customer-user-info via LDAP or other sources (both!).
