This documentation guides you to use an Authenticator that adds LDAP users to confluence-users as they log in.

To use this Authenticator, change the line:

<authenticator class="com.atlassian.confluence.user.ConfluenceAuthenticator"/>

in <Confluence-Install directory>/confluence/WEB-INF/classes/seraph-config.xml to:

<authenticator class="com.atlassian.confluence.user.ConfluenceGroupJoiningAuthenticator"/>

As of Confluence 2.2 and later, there is no need to download the class files attached to this page. The change in seraph-config.xml is sufficient.

If experiencing performance problems when logging in, it may be due to CONF-13754. You can add the files ConfluenceGroupJoiningAuthenticator.class and ConfluenceGroupJoiningAuthenticator$1.class file and put it in <confluence-installation-directory>/confluence/WEB-INF/classes/com/atlassian/confluence/user. This will override the built-in version of ConfluenceGroupJoiningAuthenticator in Confluence 3.0.1 and earlier versions of Confluence.
