Thanks for your prompt response Thomas...now I am relieved.
All I need to do is figure out how to configure LDAP with XWiki.
By the way, in case I have a user let's say - Jane Doe whose username in
Active Directory is Jane.Doe
Would I create a user of the same name called JaneDoe in XWiki or would I
create user called Jane.Doe?
Or am I misreading something here and don't need to create users at all in
XWiki...

Hello folks,
Returning to the xwiki mailing list after a long time with a question
about LDAP authentication.
Our active directory has usernames with a dot (.) character. Would it
be possible to sync our XWiki with the active directory under this
scenario. If I am not mistaken, we would need to create equivalent
users in the XWiki for each user in the active directory.
And, XWiki does not accept a dot in the username field.
Any insight will be greatly appreciated. Thank you guys.
XWiki does not accept a dot in the page but LDAP authenticator has a
special handling of username with . so you will not have issue.
In short don't worry about . in ldap user name it's working ;)
