Hi

I have included accounts-password package and new user got created in Meteor.users() Collection.

So I think LDAP Authentication is achieved . Ploblem solved :smile:

Thanks for all your hard work.

One more query

New document in Meteor.users only contain username --- how to insert a profile (email, age etc) when new user created If any idea

Thanks again

Hi! Glad you got it working. You can have the email, age, etc. set by adding them to the profile map:

LDAP_DEFAULTS.searchResultsProfileMap = [{
  resultKey: 'cn',
  profileProperty: 'name'
}, {
  resultKey: 'ag', // This would be whatever the ldap key for 'age' actually is.
  profileProperty: 'age'
}], // Etc.

It depends on what the named properties are in your LDAP setup, but the profile map will map those properties back to the user.profile object for you.
