hi,
i need to authenticate users through ldap but i need also to store their
preferences in the database, i cant really understand if
django-auth-ldap (http://packages.python.org/django-auth-ldap) only
authenticats the users over ldap or if it creates a real user object in
django.
AFAICS it creates a corresponding User object if one is missing for each
ldap authenticated user at authentication time (good ol' get_or_create).
Pretty much all django apps with any per-user functionality expect you
to be using django.contrib.auth.models.User
for users, so doing so makes a lot of sense.
