Re: using OpenMeetings via LDAP and/or moodle with one account?

[Michael Wuttke <mi...@beuth-hochschule.de>]

Hello Juan,

please could you send your openmeetings_gateway.php your diff of the
file? I tried your suggestions but it doesn’t work. I've got an user
via moodle with the userid of moodle in the column
om_user.externaluserid and the om_user.type 'user' and I've got an
user via LDAP directly with no entry in the column
om_user.externaluserid and the om_user.type 'ldap'.

Many thanks,
Michael
