Hi, Tony.

Thank you very much for good answer and trying to help me.

We are using currently openfire with LDAP and users authentication is
done through LDAP. Passwords are encrypted.

Is there any way to use LDAP for managing users (and authentication) for
sipx and openfire? As i know right now is possible only to import users
from sipx, right?

Other questions are:

Openfire users are using usernames like "tgraciano", but in phones we
use extension numbers to register to sipx. Do we need to use also
extension numbers when we are going to authenticate for openfire?

If i add users in sip, how are the users shared between openfire and
sipx, is this the same table? I suppose the users are recorded once in
sipx database and once in openfire database and when we delete an user,
then the records are removed from both, am i right?
