Automatic permissions for a new user home folder

Hi,

When creating a new user through the administration console of the web client, I would like users and roles permissions to be automatically assigned to the home folder of the newly created user.

The closest to this that I got was by modifying the home-space-permission of the web-client-config.xml file, but this only allows me to specify the permissions for every other user accessing this folder. What I would like to do is, for example, assign specific permissions for a certain group accessing the folder.

I've tried to do this as well by by means of modifying the homeFolderProviders in the authentication-services-context.xml file, with little success so far.

I've searched the forum, but I haven't been able to find a solution to this problem. Can anyone please point me in the appropriate direction?

I'm using Alfresco Community 2.1
Thanks in advance

Hi

You can do this via the homeFolderProviders (but not via the UI as it specifies a home folder and permissions).
LDAP import would do the kind of thing you want.
