Hi,
I have external authentication set to AD LDAP and it works fine.
The problem now is when a end user sends an email from xxx@gmail.com to, RT 3.8 gives an error saying that the user cant be loaded from ldap and rt doesnt have the right configuration to create the user in the databse (internal).
What are the variables i need to set so the user is automatically created in the RT database when someone sends an email and dont exist in the external LDAP?
TIA,
Filipe

i was under the impression that the whole point of having RT integrate with LDAP was to prevent such interaction by unauthenticated users?
just a thought…

Not to hijack the thread (its related 
I wanted to be able to
autocreate users in RT if they are already in LDAP. So if a new hire
sends a ticket in, the ticket will get created without me having to
create the user in RT manually. I used to use the ADimport script (ran
nightly for updates), but I was hoping I could do away with that. Will
this setting allow me to do that?

Correct. I agree it could be named better but the idea is, ExternalAuth
PROVIDES the method for autocreating LDAP users, that setting is just a
question about what you want to do with users who werent found in ldap.

If the error is something like:
“RT could not load a valid user, and RT’s configuration does not allow
for the creation of a new user for your email.”
Then maybe you haven’t given CreateTicket permissions to “Everyone”
on the particular queue.
