Default Re: LDAP Import Tasks

Depending on the data in LDAP tha you want to query, you need to find a key to work with then import the other data that relates to that key. It would be best to do this with a dev or test installation and put some dummy data in your database that you can work with. I only started working on these features a few months ago, but it's a low priority for me and I did not get very far.
I could never really find a good key for importing user information from AD except email address, which isn't populated automatically.

I think it might be a 2-3 step process to get all the data populated for users, something like

1. key on auto-populated keyname (firstname.lastname or lastname.firstname) and populate email address,
2. key on email address and populate phone numbers, fax numbers first and last name fields

If you figure something else out, please post it here or send me a PM.

Cheers
