[rt-users] Changing autogeneratet username

[Senoner Samuel]

LDAP is very fine, so you can import e-mail addres, username, description and phone number and so on.....
I have an Active directory, where I import my data.
Since there are some unclean subs you have to change a couple of places, you have to insert a file in /interfaces/email/auth, a Local of EmailParser and insert the auth in the SiteConfig. This for Mail
For authomatic user creation by login you have to change autohandler and add a use to Mason/request.pm

Are you interested?

I also do my apache authentification with LDAP.

Thank you, i think that i have now found the right place for the modification.

My plans are: RT -> WebExternalAuth -> Auth_Pam -> ...

The usernames in our Systems are identical with the username part of the email addresses.

Because of this i would like to rewrite "username at at.our.domain"
to "username" so that with the first request the correct RT user will be generated and the requestor can login and view the status of his request(s).

How complicated is it?
Do i have to modify the code or just to set some variables?
