LDAP User and Password Provisioning

Overview

This document explains how to synchronize user information and passwords between Drupal and Active Directory/LDAP servers. It supports Drupal 8, 9, 10, and 11. Users can reset their AD passwords and update profile details directly from Drupal. The module also enables manual and cron-based sync to keep data consistent across systems. Even if LDAP is unavailable, users can still manage and update their information through Drupal.
