Best regards

Thanks for your answer… before posting the previous message I had
browsed the Wiki and could only find the info about setting up
authentication with LDAP… it worked OK, but I couldn’t (can’t) find
the info about making RT get info about which RT groups my user
belongs to from the LDAP groups he belongs to…

Thanks for your patiente, and best regardsOn 9/17/07, stever@up-south.com stever@up-south.com wrote:

Did you ever work out how to achieve this?

I am in the same boat - I have User authentication working via LDAP, but would like to assign group membership through it as well.

Cheers,

I ran across this just yesterday:

ApproximateSeparateQueues - Request Tracker Wiki

It describes a method to use some custom fields in LDAP, but you could
as easily use groups.

Karl,

I had a look at this, but this really relates to ticket creation. What I am after is for RT to assign group membership based on LDAP group membership.

I have a bunch of groups set up within RT and it would be great if users that get auto created from LDAP also get their group memberships created.

MediaWiki does this well - on logon, it queries for LDAP group membership and adds/deletes users in the relevant (local) group based on that membership.

Unless I have misunderstood that page of course :wink:
