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...
You don't need to create them. Once LDAP is configured correctly in XWiki,
users will be created automatically in the wiki the first time they connect
to the wiki with their LDAP credentials.

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 ;)
