Change comment: i believe the mail=mail value to be in error for a microsoft active directory. it did not work for me until i changed it to email=mail. only then did it start pulling the email value correctly. (using xwiki v2.0.3) thanks!

270 +2 JBoss SPNEGO (Kerberos in combination with LDAP)
271 +I changed the code of the XWikiLDAPAuthServiceImpl to be able to detect the sso user.
272 +The authenication already happend by using the SPNEGO module (JAAS).
273 +After that I'm using the ldap synchronisation feature to make sure that the user is up to date.
274 +The combination leads to an automatic login in the xwiki and the user rights are controlled in the Active Directory server.
275 +I hope you can adopt this code or that you can use it for your own projects.
