Managing users (LDAP)

In addition to the build-in way of adding users, you can also make use of Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) integration to authenticate with users defined in LDAP. Here are the steps:

1. Setup LDAP by adding the following attributes to users:
   
   • isvptwuser
   • active
   • createuser
   • updateuser
   • deleteuser
   • createproject
   • updateproject
   • deleteproject
   Set the correct values to represent different level of rights for users. Specify also properties like users' names and their passwords.
