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... On Thu, Mar 4, 2010 at 17:46, Dilipkumar Jadhav <[email protected]> wrote:
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 ;)
