user_group is really just a filter and do nothing
else, so I don't
have any idea how it can have influence on the skin.
I also didn't expect it to have the effect it did.
Is the user's profile is correctly created and
contains rights
informations ?
I believe so. I can go to the user's page in XWiki and it shows up as I
expect it.
Is this append all the time for any user ?
Sadly, I can only test for myself at the moment as I don't have access to
the other users' passwords.

Now here's some more details:
After I commented out the "xwiki.authentication.ldap.user_group", I still
couldn't log in (well, half way, as I said before). Then I looked deeper
in teh config and noticed that my search base DN was not what I expected.
I changed it to include "cn=Users":
xwiki.authentication.ldap.base_DN=cn=Users,dc=XXXX,dc=YYYY
However, even then I couldn't log in. I'm not confident that is the right
base_DN to use, but I'm unsure of what else to test.
I also discovered that I had it falling back to XWiki's DB, so the
problematic could still log in if I created her account manually:
xwiki.authentication.ldap.trylocal=1
However, I'm not sure I like that solution.
Regards,
Brian.
