Hi All. I have been searching the message boards about configuring RT to<br>
work with LDAP.<br>
<br>
I'm using the RT-Authen-ExternalAuth module.<br>
<br>
I have that part working. Users can login, create tickets, and see their<br>
own open tickets.<br>
<br>
Now I want to setup users to work the tickets, i.e. the help desk people.<br>
<br>
How do I designate certain ldap users as being privileged users in RT?<br>
I can't seem to find a way to do so.<br>
If I try to create any local users, it doesn't seem to work. It<br>
complains that it could not set the info.<br>
If I try to create a user that has the same name as an ldap user it<br>
complains about that as well, saying name in use.<br>
<br>
It seems like it is hitting ldap for everything now, except for the root<br>
user. That's fine with me, I'm just not sure how to setup help desk<br>
people. Anyone else have this problem?<br>
If someone could steer me in the right direction, I would really<br>
appreciate it.<br>
<br>
Thanks.<br>
