The issue is not putting the username into the web2py database, but another database that's storing information.

I am not sure how you connect to LDAP, but there is utilities to connect LDAP with web2py. You should read about those in the book searching with LDAP as keyword. If you only want to import LDAP user into web2py database table, I suggest you to use the user table of the RBAC.

So then you can access those entries with CRUD, but also manage who is allow to access those sensitive informations.

    I'm logging in to my application via AD/LDAP.  I can get the
    variable of the username with no issue.  What i need to do next is
    take this variable and insert it into a field in a CRUD form and
    have it show in my database.

    Thanks,
    Larry
