h1. Is "user password" a required field for new user creation in UPT?

*Topic*: caArray and UPT Integration 

*Release*: Up to caArray 2.x

*Date entered*: 01/10/2010

h2. Answer

If you are planning to login to caArray with LDAP Authentication, the "User Password" field should be left as blank. (For more details, see [caArray 021 - Configuring caArray for LDAP authentication], Login to caArray with LDAP Authentication.) If you are going to login with a Username/Password, a *Not Null* value must be entered for the "User Password" field.

h2. Have a comment?
