Hi Seph,

Thanks for Your reply.

I know there is something in the old archives I have to search through.
Have You thaught about the possibility to _not_ use RT's private
userdatabase, in such a way that RT makes direct request to a LDAP server.

This is perhaps what we "dream" of, a better solution than sync and
import.

Tomas
