[rt-users] rt and LDAP?

[Jesse]

Well, 
        RT2 provides somewhat cleaner hooks than RT1 to allow user metadata
        and auth to be done against external databases, though nobody that 
        I know of has actually _done_ it yet.  Note, however, that you
        will still need to have an RT account for each user inside of
        RT's database.....it's just that RT can then ask another system
        for detailed information.....

Emacs is a pretty good operating system, but Unix has a better editor.
