Hi,

Need your quick help to get/fetch user logged-in information.

I configured LDAP to authenticate the user to the twiki site successfully. Each user logs-in with his email-id and ldap password. Now, when I am trying to display the username (i.e., email-id) wit below statement in the topic, it is actually displaying with word format styled email-id (example below).

%USERINFO{format="$username"}

when I login with srinivasachary.mutukuloju@gmailPLEASENOSPAM.com, it is displayed like SrinivasacharyDotMutukulojuAtGmailDotCom .

Is there a way to fetch exact email-id what he has used while login?

I have below configured details in TWiki.

$TWiki::cfg{UserMappingManager} = 'TWiki::Users::LdapUserMapping'; $TWiki::cfg{Register}{EnableNewUserRegistration} = 1; $TWiki::cfg{Register}{HidePasswd} = 1; $TWiki::cfg{Register}{AllowSystemGeneratedPassword} = 0; $TWiki::cfg{PasswordManager} = 'TWiki::Users::LdapPasswdUser'; $TWiki::cfg{MinPasswordLength} = '5';

$TWiki::cfg{Ldap}{Debug} = 0; $TWiki::cfg{Ldap}{UserBase} = 'ou=People,xxxx'; $TWiki::cfg{Ldap}{LoginFilter} = 'objectClass=posixAccount'; $TWiki::cfg{Ldap}{UserScope} = 'sub'; $TWiki::cfg{Ldap}{LoginAttribute} = 'uid'; $TWiki::cfg{Ldap}{MailAttribute} = 'mail'; $TWiki::cfg{Ldap}{WikiNameAttributes} = 'cn'; $TWiki::cfg{Ldap}{NormalizeWikiNames} = 1; $TWiki::cfg{Ldap}{NormalizeLoginNames} = 0; $TWiki::cfg{Ldap}{WikiNameAliases} = ''; $TWiki::cfg{Ldap}{AllowChangePassword} = 1; $TWiki::cfg{Ldap}{SecondaryPasswordManager} = 'TWiki::Users::HtPasswdUser'; $TWiki::cfg{Ldap}{GroupBase} = 'ou=groups,xxxx'; $TWiki::cfg{Ldap}{GroupFilter} = 'objectClass=posixGroup'; $TWiki::cfg{Ldap}{GroupScope} = 'sub'; $TWiki::cfg{Ldap}{GroupAttribute} = 'cn'; $TWiki::cfg{Ldap}{MemberAttribute} = 'memberUid'; $TWiki::cfg{Ldap}{MemberIndirection} = 1; $TWiki::cfg{Ldap}{TWikiGroupsBackoff} = 1; $TWiki::cfg{Ldap}{WikiGroupsBackoff} = 1; $TWiki::cfg{Ldap}{NormalizeGroupNames} = 1; $TWiki::cfg{Ldap}{MapGroups} = 1; $TWiki::cfg{Ldap}{RewriteGroups} = {}; $TWiki::cfg{Ldap}{MergeGroups} = 0; $TWiki::cfg{Ldap}{MaxCacheAge} = 300; $TWiki::cfg{Ldap}{Precache} = 1; $TWiki::cfg{Ldap}{PageSize} = 0; $TWiki::cfg{Ldap}{PageSize} = 0; $TWiki::cfg{Ldap}{Exclude} = 'WikiGuest, ProjectContributor, RegistrationAgent, UnknownUser, AdminGroup, NobodyGroup, AdminUser, admin, guest'; $TWiki::cfg{Plugins}{LdapNgPlugin}{Enabled} = 1; $TWiki::cfg{Plugins}{LoginEmailPlugin}{Enabled} = 1; $TWiki::cfg{Plugins}{NewUserPlugin}{Enabled} = 1; $TWiki::cfg{Plugins}{LdapPlugin}{Enabled} = 1; $TWiki::cfg{Plugins}{LDAPPasswordChangerPlugin}{Enabled} = 1; $TWiki::cfg{Ldap}{PrimaryGroupAttribute} = 'gidNumber'; $TWiki::cfg{Ldap}{InnerGroupAttribute} = 'memberUid';

Discussion and Answer

You likely need the LdapNgPlugin.

thanks Peter. I looked at this plugin. Can you give some insight to find and print the logged-in Username with this plugin. The username is actually a email-id.
