Hi Raff,
I have enabled LDAP authentication and it works fine. Now I would want
to add the LDAP user on first logon, don't want a bulk LDAP import. I am
groovy illiterate, so trying to modify what you have written, and
referring to java code...Also, where do I put the following script for
it to run? I am supposing you have to put it in the wiki main home page
itself..
Something like -
<%if (request.get("go") == "1")
{
    username = request.getUserPrincipal()
    username = context.getContext().getWiki().convertUsername(username,
context.getContext())
    def created = "created"
    udoc = xwiki.getDocument("XWiki." + username)
    if (!udoc.isNew())
    {
      udoc.delete()
      created = "updated"
    }
    xwiki.createEmptyUser(username,null,context.getContext())
    print("*" + created + "*" + " ")
    print (" [XWiki." + username + "]")
  }
}
%>
#if(!$request.get("go") || $request.get("go") != "1") [Import and/or
Update Users>$doc.name?go=1] #end
Thanks

Hi,

You should add something like that in your xwiki.cfg :

xwiki.authentication.createuser=ldap

So users will be created at they don't exist in the wiki.

With this method, you will not need any script on the wiki.
