So I've got the LDAP Integration module installed and configured (http://drupal.org/project/ldap_integration). Hitting our Active Directory domain with no problems. Users can authenticate, seems to work great. Managed to map a couple additional AD fields to Drupal profile fields, too. Love it.

What I can't figure out, though, is if there's a way to create all the AD users in Drupal at once. Looks like those Drupal users are automatically created the first time a new user logs in, which is fantastic, but unless I'm missing something, I can't find any way to seed the pot with all the AD users ahead of time.

Reason I'm trying to do this is that I'm creating a custom content type that should include a user reference field populated with all the user names. If the user hasn't logged into the Drupal site, he doesn't have a Drupal account and his name doesn't appear in the list.

I'm definitely open to other suggestions, if there's a better way to do this besides mass importing the AD user names somehow.

Thanks.

This is a module addon for ldap_intergration that might help. I've been experimenting with it with some success.

Thanks for that! I'll take a look ASAP.

Any 'gotchas' worth sharing from your experience with it thus far?

Did you have any luck with getting this to work? If so, any tips or advice to follow? I am trying to do the same thing, however with a few filters/limitations by group (e.g. pull select users belonging to a specific group). I'm running D6 and already am using LDAP authentication which works perfectly for me.

ldapsync is now part of the latest ldap_integration-6.x-1.x-dev.

It does work for updating all records, but I could not get filters to work. Either my syntax was wrong or filters has issue. Posted question in ldap_integration issues queue but no response yet.
