Hi all! I'm playing around with StatusNet at the moment- I'm curious whether microblogging might improve communication and "up-to-dateness" at work ;-)
Since I wanted to integrate everything into our AD the new LDAP plugin came in handy. But the README is wrong: $config['ldap']['nickname_attribute'] $config['ldap']['nickname_email'] $config['ldap']['nickname_fullname'] $config['ldap']['nickname_homepage'] $config['ldap']['nickname_location'] should read: $config['ldap']['nickname_attribute'] $config['ldap']['email_attribute'] $config['ldap']['fullname_attribute'] $config['ldap']['homepage_attribute'] $config['ldap']['location_attribute'] shouldn't it? However, if I understand the code correctly you're mapping LDAP attributes to StatusNet attributes only the first time someone logs in and only when autoregister is true. Wouldn't it be possible to get some attributes (like email) always from our AD and only the others (like bio) from the StatusNet DB? I don't want people to change, for example, their email address since the "official" one should be used. Similarly, I want AD changes (like a location change) to show up on StausNet. I thought about a crude hack: "Syncing" AD attributes to the StatusNet DB in onCheckPassword. But that would be... well, just a dirty workaround. Would it be possible to write a plugin redirecting some queries about user attributes to LDAP? cu Mario -- The antidote to distasteful or hateful speech is not censorship, but more speech. _______________________________________________ StatusNet-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.status.net/mailman/listinfo/statusnet-dev
