If enabled, it will create new user in Koha. update is triggered every time users logs in, and it will overwrite that user info in Koha using data from LDAP. So, if you edited user which originally came from LDAP in Koha and user logs in again, that data will be overwritten. In our configuration we are using just replicate to create new users, and since we have script which keep just dateexpiry in Koha in sync with LDAP we are not using update. Documentation embedded withing koha and available via perldoc Auth_with_ldap.pm is as far as I know, best resource for LDAP configuration.

Barcode and spine label printing in Koha
by Hartman, David W. - GBTS Library 12 Oct '11

12 Oct '11

Hello! Is it possible to print both barcodes and spine labels on the same sheet? I see Gaylord has a label set, Gaylord LSL04 for both barcode and spine labels. If so, does someone have a template for this or similar? :) David W.

Re: [Koha] Barcode and spine label printing in Koha

Although I haven't tried this with koha, with other library software a good workable solution is to export the label fields as a .csv and then import them into a word processor, where it's easy to format for labels. The whole process can be scripted so anyone can generate labels. Bob Elgie

LDAP documentation
by Tom Hanstra 12 Oct '11

12 Oct '11

Where can I find additional documentation on how Koha interacts with LDAP. Options in the configuration file include "replicate" and "update", but I've yet to get a good understanding of how each fully works and how I can best populate patrons using data from my LDAP server.

490 not visible in normal view?
by Magdalena Söderqvist 12 Oct '11

12 Oct '11

Hi, SIPRI library just finished a test update from 3.2 to 3.4.5 and everything seems just fine, except for one thing: -the data in marcfield 490 (a,x,v) no longer show up in the "normal view" either in the OPAC or the Intranet. Or to be correct, the data in the 490-field almost never shows - I have found a few records where the series data appears, but in most records it doesn't. In one record with 2 separate 490 fields one of them is visible, but when checking other records with 2 separate 490 entries neither appears. Any thoughts on the matter is most welcome! FYI: Swedish libraries follow LoC recommendations which means we no longer use the obsolete field 440, so the 490 is absolutely essential for our records to display properly. Sincerely, Magdalena -- . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Re: [Koha] About Conference & the ggdocs

Thanks Paul, actually there is no hassle / interaction with the police for you at all. Just something we have to do as organizers. To everybody else, if you are on a tourist visa ( or if you are Indian), its all right not to fill the form as we don't need to send your information to anyone in that case. But we would still like to know your dates of arrival & departure, the hotel you will be staying in, whether you will attend the hackfest, whether you would like to take the day trip etc. This will help us in organizing and in providing you with any assistance if required. So please mail me this information. Regards, Koustubha Kale Anant Corporation Contact Details : Address : 103, Armaan Residency, R. W Sawant Road, Nr.

overdue status triggers
by Caitlin McGurk 11 Oct '11

11 Oct '11

Hey Koha- Does anyone know if there's a way to set more than 3 overdue triggers? I'm having an issue at our small library where the three notices go out, the books never get returned, and the patrons forget because there aren't anymore notices to remind them. So I guess this is two questions: 1- Is there a way to set more than 3 triggers? 2- Is there a way to generate a reminder for a single patron who has very overdue books? Thanks! Caitlin
