Re: [otrs] Customer authentication via Active Directory

Hi, I think there may be a couple of typos in the config file (UserPricipalName (missing 'n') ). Besides that, i think that some of the fields are mandatory. If, for example, you login as a user with an empty E-mail field, you'll get the Panic! No UserData! error. Login, Email and CustomerID needed, according to your own config file. Others may also be required. Is there anything in the OTRS log about missing data? -- /Sune _____ From: otrs-bounces@otrs.org [mailto:otrs-bounces@otrs.org] On Behalf Of Christophe Flaviani Sent: 4. juni 2008 12:52 To: otrs@otrs.org Subject: [otrs] Customer authentication via Active Directory Dear All, I'm configuring otrs 2.2.6 and I'm facing a configuration problem: Configuration goal: Manage all users (both agents and customers) from an Active Directory Server (Windows 2003 SP2) so that we don't have to add a user in both interfaces.

Thanks Sune !!!
It was just a typo.....
FYI, I saw the problem with the Customer mandatory fields just I send out my
cry for help, but.... it was a copy paste from the official otrs 2.2 pdf
manual...
Anyway,
Thanks a lot!!
