Hello Tom, Each of our users has only a single identity (i.e. a single RT account). Whether they log in using certificates or username/password, they are logging in as the same RT user. The certificates have an 'email address' embedded, which in our case maps to the RT user name. We override RT::Interface::Web::CanonicalizeInfo to extract the user name from the certificate's email address info.
