Kenn,
    I'm not sure how to give you the info you're asking for but...

If I look under Configuration->Global->Group Rights, Everyone, into the Rights for Staff tab I found that ModifySelf / "Modify one's own RT account" is not checked currently. The same is true for Privileged and Unprivileged. Should I start with enabling ModifySelf / "Modify one's own RT account" for the Privileged Users group? For Everyone?

Right now the rights that are granted are the same for Everyone/Privileged/Unprivileged entries are "Create tickets" and "Reply to tickets"

Under the Global-User Rights we only have root and RT Admin listed. They have the "Do anything and everything" right, logically enough.

Under the Configuration->Queues, into itsupport, there are no Users listed for the User Rights. For Group Rights, Everyone has CreateTicket and the Unprivileged have SeeQueue & ShowTicket.

Scott,

I can, but it would be helpful to know how uyou have set up your privileges, both Globally and by Queue. Also, in order for LDAP info to get into a User, they must have the "ModifySelf" right applied. OVerall, I think this is all a privileges problem.

    Hello RT Users,
       To preface, I've got several years experience and training with
    the Linux platform and PERL, but I'm completely new to RT; I've
    done a few web searches and a three or four different google
    searches of the email archive and can't find any insight into our
    problem.

       We're having a strange problem with our users in our two RT
    instances, that we think are related.  When our internal IT
    Support instance of RT was created everything was working well for
    some time, and we currently have RT configured to work with our
    LDAP database for users and their credentials.  However, new users
    (new employees) trying to use RT are not able to get the same
    functionality.

       For example: one user can send in emails to the RT queue and
    proceed normally.  However if he tries to log in to the web
    version, the RT system treats him like is associated with a
    different queue than the rest of our users.  When he tried to
    create a ticket through the web RT would create the ticket in this
    wrong queue, and he immediately got an error that he did not have
    permissions to view his ticket.
        RT creates an internal user for him, unlike the rest of our
    employees who don't show up in the user list because they exist in
    the configured LDAP.  I disabled the (discontinued) queue, and
    edited the user created form him to disassociate it from him
    (rename, re-email, etc), and then had him try to log in again.
     Again, RT created a user with his name/credentials in its own SQL
    database instead of querying LDAP, and associated his user with
    the now disabled queue.  He can no longer create tickets because
    the queue is disabled, and I can't figure out how to alter his
    account to associate him with the proper queue.

       Can anyone help me with this first problem?
