Is there a plugin to convert the user ID to user name?

Added by David Clark over 3 years ago

Our company is in the process of converting over to another login ID rather than the previous version. The LDAP server is expecting a 6 digit ID to login with.
This then gets propagated into SVN for any files or modifications. The names have disappeared. Is there a plug in that will either:
  1. allow us to use email as the user id and then translate to the 6 digit number for LDAP authentication
  2. allow us to use the 6 digit ID but then convert that to our first and last name when recording records in SVN

Thank you in advance.

Any chance you could switch which attribute is used for the “login” field within your LDAP configuration in Redmine? I dealt with a similar issue years ago when our LDAP system changed, and didn’t find such a plugin, but instead I could just switch the “login” attribute from uid to either cn, mail, or upn.
