            Bug ID: 9375
           Summary: Logging in with LDAP creates duplicate users
    Classification: Unclassified
 Change sponsored?: ---
           Product: Koha
           Version: 3.8
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: P5 - low
         Component: Authentication
          Assignee: gmcharlt at gmail.com

Bug noted in 3.8, probably exists in master as well.

To replicate:

Create a "native" koha user with the same username/password as your LDAP user.
Log in with LDAP - a duplicate user should be created with the mapped fields in
the borrower account.

I think this is not working as intended - my thought is that if a user exists
in Koha, and the user/password are identical, one of two things should happen:

Either Koha should recognize that this user exists and ask the user if they
want to populate the existing account with the data from LDAP, or Koha should
recognize that this user exists and simply log in, leaving the member account
alone and inserting no data.

Thoughts?
