Create Massive User

[luminesens]

Hi,

We are trying to implement alfresco on our company, but we have some problem with all user that will using alfresco later.
I want to create about hundred to thousand users to implement, is anyone have any idea to create massive user with minimal time to create?

If I try to add user one by one with admin menu it will takes much much time to implement.

Thanks,
Hakim.

If you have LDAP available within your company, you can set up Alfresco to synchronize with LDAP, importing all the users and groups into Alfresco. You will then authenticate against the LDAP server, or, perhaps better, the underlying AD server.

Alternatively, you can mass import a list of users. You will need to create a tab-separated-value text file, and write a script that uses Person services to create each account. Again, you can authenticate against AD or LDAP if you don't want passwords floating around.

Search the Alfresco wiki. Version 3.2 of Alfresco apparently has much-improved interfaces to LDAP.

If you are not currently using LDAP in your organization, or at least Active Directory, then this may not be the solution for you.

xml can be created in user friendly environment , or created from database ect .
