You can also create accounts via the old XML-RPC protocol; which is what is used by the LDAPAccountSync tool included in OGoMojo. <http://www.whitemiceconsulting.com/node/101> In general I'd avoid direct SQL modification of the database. If there is something that can only be accomplished that way it indicates a limitation/failure/flaw in the provided tools and merits [IMO] a bug report. -- OpenGroupware.org Users [email protected] http://mail.opengroupware.org/mailman/listinfo/users
