Joe, Thanks for the quick reply. That's good to know, but something is still not working right because I haven't been able to log in with any of my AD user accounts (whether or not I have an existing borrower in the Koha database with the same username). I get this error in the logs: opac-user.pl: LDAP Auth rejected : invalid password for user '[USERNAME]'. LDAP error #16: LDAP_NO_SUCH_ATTRIBUTE, referer: http://avocado/cgi-bin/koha/opac-user.pl opac-user.pl: # The request referenced an attribute that does not exist, referer: http://avocado/cgi-bin/koha/opac-user.pl Cheers, Christopher Curry Assistant Technical Librarian / Assistant IT Officer American Philosophical Society 105 South Fifth Street Philadelphia, PA 19106-3386 Tel.

Christopher --
You seem to be expecting Koha to extract the entire LDAP directory at once. It doesn't. Instead, it updates the user account when they go to login. So you should try to login as one of the users that isn't yet in your Koha DB, or that has outdated info. If you want the mass upload, you should export from LDAP to CSV and use the normal patron import tool.
Having some kind of batch LDAP update mode is desirable, but nobody has sponsored or worked on such functionality.

Hello all,
I'm trying to set configure Koha to access my Active Directory LDAP server. I don't get errors when I browse to the catalog, so it seems that the configuration is being accepted, but my borrowers database has not been updated. I tried restarting the server (which should cover restarting apache, as well -- right?). I used the following documentation: http://wiki.koha.org/doku.php?id=en:development:ldap.
My configuration is copied below; the ALL-CAPS areas are of course replaced with the relevant data.
Any thoughts?
I've pasted this into /etc/koha3/koha-conf.xml inside <config>, inside of <yazgfs>:
<useldapserver>1</useldapserver>
<!-- LDAP SERVER (optional) --> <ldapserver id="LDAP_IPADDRESS" listenref="LDAP_IPADDRESS"> <hostname>LDAP_IPADDRESS</hostname> <base>CN=USERS_FOLDER_NAME,DC=DOMAIN,DC=TOP_LEVEL_DOMAIN</base> <user>CN=USERNAME,CN=USERS_FOLDER_NAME,DC=DOMAIN,DC=TOP_LEVEL_DOMAIN</user> <pass>PASSWORD</pass> <replicate>1</replicate> <update>1</update> <mapping> <firstname is="givenName"></firstname> <surname is="sn"></surname> <address is="">ADDRESS</address> <city is="">CITY</city> <zipcode is="">19106</zipcode> <branchcode is="">BRANCHCODE</branchcode> <userid is="sAMAccountName"></userid> <password is="userPassword"></password> <categorycode is="">S</categorycode> <email is="">manuscripts@amphilsoc.org <mailto:manuscripts@amphilsoc.org></email> <phone is="">215-440-3400</phone> </mapping> </ldapserver>
