<p class=MsoNormal>Good Afternoon All<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I am playing with the idea of using LDAP for user authentication
and to use this feature to populate the Koha patron db. I know the patron db
will not be populated automatically only when a user logs in. So my
issue/question is that I can match up the usual LDAP fields with the corresponding
ones in KOha like , first name and last name. I can even find one to use for
Branch but I am having trouble finding one for patron type. I do see in the instructions
for ldap (<a href="http://wiki.koha.org/doku.php?id=en:development:ldap">http://wiki.koha.org/doku.php?id=en:development:ldap</a>)
that there is a “categorycode” field, is this the field for patron
type or is there another? If it is the field, does anyone know a field in
LDAP/AD to use to hold this information?<o:p></o:p></p>
