Hi,
There is a web service in order to flush the LDAP cache. This service is available here <http://xxx/jahia/services/JahiaCache?wsdl>http://xxx/jahia/services/JahiaCache?wsdl . You need to call the operation " flushByName " for the two caches ( "LDAPGroupsCache" and "ProvidersGroupsCache" ). You could then generate an event from your LDAP each time there is a modification (or make a small srcipt which call this service periodially).

Dear fellow developers, At our company, access to Jahia (v4.1) sites is controlled using groups from the LDAP repository. When a user is granted or revoked rights, he is added to or removed from the appropriate LDAP group. Users also log in to the portal sites using LDAP accounts. We found that to propagate changes in ldap users and groups to the Jahia sites, we usually need to flush the Jahia server caches related to these items. Currently, an administrator logs in to flush these caches every once in a while. Our administrators have requested to have these items flushed automatically once every week. To do so, I was thinking of adding a quartz job that uses the scheduler service to clear the user and group caches. Has anyone ever done something similar? Is there anything I should be aware of when I do so? Any pitfalls? Best regards, Max. -- No virus found in this incoming message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.
