Recreate Guest user

[jinku]

Using LDAP authentication and synchronization with "clearallchildren" enabled, my Guest user was deleted (it might also happen accidentally).

Is there a way to recreate a guest user ? (with web user administration console, a password is required for each new user…)
I need it to enable RSS syndication on spaces…
Thanks.

Hi

You should not clear all children whe importing people from LDAP - you will remove any user preferences etc, and delete the guest and admin users.

Both guest and admin can be recreated (if one of your LDAP users has admin rights). It does not matter what password you give to guest; it will be ignored for guest access. The uid for guest must be all lower case.
