users_ldap creates duplicate users because by default ldap is case insensitive.

[Daniel Reis]

Using users_ladap module with the "Create user" option activated on the "LDAP configuration".
When a user login with it's username written with different case letters, OpenERp created duplicated users.
Example: if i login first as "dreispt", and again as "DREISPT", two OpenERP users will be generated for the same LDAP user.

Hello Daniel,

Yes, you are right. Ldap is not a case sensitive that's why It will make a duplicate user( I didn't check yet).

I looked your MP, It looks ok for me. It will restrict to the user with another login name(as per lower case).

You have already put a MP for this, So our Core team will review it.

Thanks for contribution!

Stefan's branch provides a more proper solution, so I deleted the original merge proposals.

If I am not wrong, depending on your LDAP configuration, an attribute in LDAP can be case sensitive.
I would suggest you to change your LDAP attribute.

Hi Fabien,

it looks like you are wrong. The 'uid' attribute for computer logins is case insensitive by specification.

my mistake, sorry, you are right.
