The users are regarded as "Basic" access by default; Xwiki Administrator
user has "Advanced" by default.  
This is edited by modifying the user's userclass object after logging in
as the actual "Xwiki Admin" user.
I am unsure if this is even doable via LDAP unless you create the user
in Xwiki and simply point to the LDAP
authentication?

Subject: [xwiki-users] Newly entered admin users can't access all edit
modes!

Hi,

I'm just evaluating Xwiki for our intranet. The authentication should be
carried out using Active Directory, which actually works already. But
there is one problem: As there is no user "Admin" in AD we have to
assign the Admin rights for XWiki to users which are actually part of
AD. So I assigned my AD id to the XWikiAdminGroup group. When logging in
with my id, even without enabling the LDAP security, everything looks
like I'm an administrator, so I have access to administration etc. But
there is one difference to the standard Admin user: The "edit" action
menu does not show the extended features "class", "objects" etc, when
hovering over the menu "edit" no other choices are displayed. When
entering the edit mode only the tabs "WYSIWYG", "Wiki" and "Acces
Rights" are displayed.

Any solution for this? Restarting the server or flushing the cache makes
no differences.

Thanks!

Bye,
Jan
