On the topic of docs -- If somebody writes up a rough outline of the
process to setup SSO via LDAP ((or just a list of bullets in an email
message)  I'd be glad to try it out and write-up some docs.

Hi all,

I know the LDAP/SSO docs are on the "to do" list, but in lieu of those, could 
do with some
clarification.

http://rollerweblogger.org/wiki/Wiki.jsp?page=LDAP_SSP_FAQ says that Roller 
users aren't
created upon a successful first-time LDAP-backed login.

Is this still the case in 2.1? i.e. if I wanted to roll out Roller across a 
large
organisation I'd have to make sure that all users existed in the Roller DB 
beforehand?

Additionally, how does this work with the admin role in Roller? i.e. if I set 
up Roller
with LDAP correctly, do I still need to set up a roller user with admin rights, 
or can I
specify the username and password of an LDAP user and they will be assigned the 
correct
role? Again I presume this bumps into the "user must be in the roller database to 
begin with"?

Thanks for any help and I hope I've not got the wrong end of the stick here.

Cheers,

Phil Wilson
