LDAP issue with access level

[talleyrand]

Hello,

I'm using Alfresco Community 4.2f with LDAP containing about 2000 users.

Consider this directory as a sample one :
DOMAIN.LOCAL
…..|
…..—Groups
…..|………|
…..|………—Group1
…..|………|
…..|………—Group2

Consider a user UserX that is part of both Group1 and Group2
Consider a Site "Mysite" with these roles:
- Group1 is Collaborator on Mysite
- Group2 is Contributor on Mysite
I would like UserX to have the higher "Collaborator" access level, but it appears that it gets the lower one "Contributor".

Is there a way to handle such thing easily?

Best regards,

Luc

The level of access on each particular site is done within Alfresco. LDAP your just importing users regardless of their access on your network.

If your adding users to a site by group then the person in question, just take them out of the site you want to change the role to and invite them again individually with the correct access level.

Hello,

I think you did not understand my problem. Forget the LDAP.

Imagine a user X member of two groups "Marketing" and "Marketing Manager" and a site called "Marketing Site". Grant access are done through groups with these levels :
- "Marketing" group have "contributors" access to "Marketing Site"
- "Marketing Manager" have "collaborators" access "Marketing Site"
User X is part of the two groups and in the Community 4.2f version automatically gets "contributors". In Alfresco Enterprise 4.2 version, user X gets "collaborators" access level. Why is there a difference between the two versions? Why user X does not get the higher grant level?
I don't want to manually set user levels because I manage more than 2000 users and about 500 groups, a user can be part of a lot of groups.

Best regards,

Luc

Damned, that was just a cosmetic problem that appears with groups containing more than a hundred users.
