We use #3, with a tool that takes a CSV and spits out the form for Offline edit, but we're processing few records at a time for unknown users. You would seem to have a large number of known users, so ExternalAuth is probably the better choice. > Oh, and does anybody know where in the database structure it tells RT if the > user goes to SelfService or not? I can't seem to find that either...
