You don't need to re-implement LDAP authenticator. If XWiki is the master then you use the "normal" XWiki authentiocator. What you need is to implement a sync component based on user modification events to update LDAP server which has nothing to do with the authenticator. > > Tanks! > _______________________________________________ > devs mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/devs > -- Thomas Mortagne _______________________________________________ devs mailing list [email protected] http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/devs
