I think I failed in the last attempt at response...
You could always drop by the irc channel #koha on irc.oftc.net and get
to know some of the other users and developers.

Hi,
that sounds good. I tried it, and it looks like as it has worked. Thanks.
Now I have to go on a business trip, but when I am back on friday I will
test it more. But as I already said it looks very good - I can log in
localhost :8080 - I still tested. More on friday. -> I will give a feedback
of course!

Hi to all,
in our library we want to count persons there are in the rooms.
I think to read the library card when a user goes in and when he goes out.
The library car has a unique barcode.
I'm plannig to use Koha as DB of users.
Do you know any open source solution about this request ?
Do anyone develop something on Koha about it ?

Hi!
I think you need to add the -p option to tell mysql to prompt you for
a password.

We now have LDAP working to authenticate on logins. But we have also
noticed that Koha stores that same password locally. Is there a
configurable switch that I have not yet found which will keep LDAP
connected logins from local storage?
Thanks,
Tom

Tom,
As I understand it:
The Koha LDAP authentication mechanism copies user information from the
LDAP tree to the local SQL database on the Koha server in order to create
"user" accounts.
I believe one of the minimum requirements to create a Koha "user"
account is a password.
Because of Koha's requirements for creating users, I don't think you will
be able to populate the necessary fields to allow for users logins, without
populating a password field.
Last time I dealt with them, passwords were hashed with MD5, and no clear
text password were saved on the Koha system.

Tom,
What version are you on? From the code, the password hash should
only be
stored if the patron is returning (that is they already have an account
in
Koha), and you have Update turned on. Alternatively, if you've got
a new
patron signing in for the first time, and Replicate is on, and you've got
the password in the <mapping>, then it would also be hashed and stored.
These should be the only circumstances.
