Hi, we have here a lot of trac instances running. All are linked to the same LDAP (with same configuration). This keeps the user's names consistent over all instances. The authentication is done by the Apache, that means after you accessed the page listing all trac instances you can navigate to each instance without the need to login.
But there is one issue with this: Each user has to set his preferences on each instance by hand. At least the E-Mail address is an important thing to set. If the user forgets to set this, he will not receive any notifications. I see two solutions: 1. Is there a way to get the E-Mail address from the LDAP and set it automatically for the user (would be nice then to disable changing the mail address in trac). 2. Scan every night all instances by a script, build a list with users and their mail address and update all instances, where a user was already logged in once and a mail address is not set. Is there a way to do one of these things? Or is there a better solution?
