Hi,

To complete my message, here is my configuration

  <useldapserver>1</useldapserver>
  <ldapserver id="ldapserver" listenref="ldapserver">
  <hostname>**********</hostname>
  <base>ou=people,dc=ecp,dc=fr</base>
  <user>cn=syncrepl,ou=applications,dc=ecp,dc=fr</user>
  <pass>*****</pass>
  <replicate>1</replicate>
  <update>1</update>
  <auth_by_bind>1</auth_by_bind>
  <principal_name>uid=%s,ou=people,dc=ecp,dc=fr</principal_name>
  <mapping>
  <firstname is="givenname"></firstname>
  <surname is="sn"></surname>
  <address is="">Ecole Centrale Paris</address>
  <city is="">Chatenay-Malabry</city>
  <zipcode is="">92290</zipcode>
  <branchcode is="">ECAM</branchcode>
  <userid is="uid"></userid>
  <password is="userpassword"></password>
  <cardnumber is="ecpbadgenumber"></cardnumber>
  <email is="mail"></email>
  <categorycode is="supannetudiplome">employee</categorycode>
  <phone is="telephonenumber">903-566-7654</phone>
  <dateenrolled is="">2012-09-01</dateenrolled>
  <dateexpiry is="">2013-09-01</dateexpiry>
  </mapping>
  </ldapserver>

and our ldap with an example in attached file.




What it gives now

1) when i connect to the first time, it doesn't add the borrower. I need 
to create it manually and after, with ldap, it makes an update

2) when i use the ldap, i would like to use the login (supannAliasLogin) 
instead of the uid. In this case, is principal name necessary?

Why? Because, in the configuration, the login is (example) 
'2012desseauxs'. But, we would like  'desseauxs'

3) Something strange: when i use cas (which is linked to the ldap), i 
can use normally my login "desseauxs", the connection is ok but the 
personal informations aren't so complete as i use instead "2012desseauxs".

With others colleagues, we are working on this problem but we don't find 
great solutions for the moment. I 'll certainly make a csv export of the 
ldap and i' ll see next year how can i make it better.

Many thanks
