Hi,
I decided recently to move login authentication to ldap and I got ptoblems with synchronization.

When I first add user to ldap and then trying to login Exponential, it works and all information is copied to Exponential database. But when I modify/add user data/info in Exponential and then run 'php -C runcronjobs.php' where ldapusermanage.php is invoked, it does nothing besides for disabling my users which exists in both databases. Does it have to update ldap data?

So my questions are:
1. when exactly Exponential database is updated (only when logging ?) from ldap data
2. when exactly ldap data is updated from Exponential database?

Maybe I have wrong right defined in slapd.conf?

Thanks in advance,
Roman.P.

Hi,

Exponential database will be updated both when someone is logging and when you run cronjobs.
Ldap database will never be updated. You can't use Exponential to manage data in ldap server.
