Bug? New User being sent email when using ldap auth

Post by tzimmermanFSU »

We have found that when creating a new user in Admin -> Manage Users the check box to "Email User Account Information" disappears once you change the Auth Type to LDAP or Active Directory, but it will still email the user with the random generated password. I would think since we aren't using the local account password and we don't activate the "Allow local login if auth server fails" option, that it wouldn't send an email to the user with the password for local authentication.

Nagios XI version: 5.8.3
Rhel 7.9 64bit

I was able to recreate the issue in house, and filed an internal bug report (task_id=15547). I expect the issue to be fixed in the next release of Nagios XI.

Thank you for reporting this issue!
