contrib directory + 1 example from community so far #2

Please do consider pulling this. It's unobtrusive to the codebase, won't stop anything from functioning for you, is from a working setup, and as shown by the questions on rt-users, this extension is not well understood by folks. I have another to submit from a community member, but I'm not going to bother submitting it if this sort of thing is not welcome. It's very easy to say "there should just be better docs!", but something is better than nothing. I don't see "a thorough guide to externalauth" coming out of Best Practical any time soon, so... |

There are various definitions of what "working" means for a config. An AD admin who reasonably expects the standard disabled user flag in AD to be respected by RT would be quite surprised by the contributed config in this PR. We'd prefer not to distribute (any more) configs which contain know trip points or inaccuracies. Distributing them, even in a contrib/ directory, implicitly stamps our approval/review on it. What we would like is a good library of general example configs for various scenarios, such as AD. If you'd like to fixup the points I mentioned a year ago and approach configs from this angle, that'd be great. Please also take a look at the docs-improvements branch where we're reworking the ExternalAuth docs. |
