Hi,

First advice, most of the configurations should be in tomcat home/shared.
In your case tomcat home/shared/classes/alfresco-global.properties

Then, I don't know in what file you've configured the authentication chain (authentication.chain=)
But you've most likely removed the ntlm to replace by the ldap authentication.
The best option would have probably been to chain them.

I don't know what you expected that would happen when you created a user.
If you expected Alfresco to create the user in LDAP, I don't think it can do that.
If you expected Alfresco to create an internal user, then you need to chain the NTLM authentication system for this user to be able to authenticate locally.
