[xwiki-users] Using Xwiki with apache

[Gaëtan GUYODO]

I have now a xwiki running with java 6u3, tomcat 6.0.14, Oracle 
10.2.0.3.0, connected to an Active Directory, and it seems to work (only 
10 minutes of tests).
I have a question about AD users : they appear into xwiki only if they 
try to connect once. Is it normal ?
I thought I will find all my AD users into xwiki users list, but no, 
only the one who has already tried to connect.
If it is a normal situation, is it possible to manage rights for a group 
"authenticated users" ? For exemple, I want to give to every AD user the 
edit right, but now I can't see all, so can I give rights for all 
authenticated users, rights they will heritate at their first login ?
