Question

On our setup, we have apache handling authentication through LDAP, and then the LDAP username is supposed to get mapped to the user's WikiName. This all worked fine when we were running the Feb 03 version, but after upgrading to Sep 04, TWiki thinks the username is the LDAP name. In other words, it's no longer mapping LDAP names to Wikinames

Environment

Server OS: SuSE Linux
Web server: Apache

Make sure that you have:

  1. All of your registered user names in your old TWikiUsers migrated over to the new;
  2. That you have doMapUserToWikiName = "1" in your /lib/TWiki.cfg file.
