Adding my own ProviderManager (user management)

Hi all,

I'm currently working on a User- and GroupManagerProvider for our LDAP
servers (which work through an intermediate EJB running on JBoss on
Jahia 5.

So far, things are going pretty well, I'm able to fetch users and
groups from the LDAP (though the EJB) and it's even possible to change
the memberships of groups (although that made me hack the
jsp/jahia/administration/group_management/group_edit.jsp to allow
membership changes for other sources that the jahia manager).

One thing that I do not get right is adding users. When adding a users
it's added to the Jahia provider no matter what configuration settings
(I changed the "defaultProvider" property and order in the String
configuration and the <is-default> tag in the
service/usermanagement/*router-config.xml files).

Am I missing something here? What do I need to do to make the YIRDIS
provider the primary user and group resource for Jahia? I want to make
use of the jahia provider for the root and siteAdmin users everything
else has to move into the LDAP.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance,
