Adding them all to a configured group would be about 10 lines of code
stolen from RT-Extension-LDAPImport

Importing your groups from AD and mirroring memberships in RT is
very complicated and special and would require a ton of work

Heh, I thought so. Somehow I don't think I'd be the only one to notice
rt3 is somewhat convoluted and unmodular :)

Ok, it's a start. With this I could just add the default properties to
the "Privileged" user group - are there any unforseen consequences to
this?

Not currently possible unless you write the extra code.

This is done with:

Set($AutoCreate, {Privileged => 1});

Is there a way to do this?


Not without writing code I'm afraid.  This is something there have been
a number of enquiries about, but as far as I am aware there hasn't been a 
really good solution posted anywhere.  


This is part of what you want:  see the CurrentUser_Local.pm section in

Cheers,

[rt-users] LDAP with ExternalAuth, adding autocreated users to groups

2009-11-16 Thread Ivan Voras
Hi,

I'm trying to configure RT3.8 to authenticate via LDAP - which
apprently goes well, but the users from LDAP are autocreated in rt3
without some useful properties.

I'd like them to:

* Automatically be assigned to a specific group
* That the new user gets whatever the "Let this user be granted
rights" checkbox does in user management

Is there a way to do this?
