Linuxmuster.net (OpenLML) enrolment 0.9 (Build: 2014021300)

Moodle 2.5, 2.6
Released: Friday, 14 February 2014, 3:56 AM
moodle-enrol_openlml
====================

enrolment plugin for moodle from 2.x to autoenrol in
conjunction with the open linux Musterlösungplugin enrol_openlml.

This module superseedes the module enrol_lml(Moodle 1.x).
It is supposed to work with the

Linux Musterlösung(paedML) Ba-Wü Germany

and with the

Open Linux Musterlösung(openLML) http://www.linuxmuster.net

servers.

It is crafted for their LDAP structure.

It needs the auth_ldap module working to get the users authenticated
through LDAP and enrols those users to courses depending on the
field $course->idnumber.

Dependencies
------------
This module needs the Auth-Plugin auth_ldap and the enrolment plugin
enrol_cohort to be active to work properly.

Cron-Job
--------
This module is processed by cron on an hourly basis, as is enrol_cohort
equally.

The module auth_ldap is not automatically processed by cron. You can
either set up a job yourself as described in

/auth/ldap/cli/sync_user.php

or you include auth_ldap in the hourly job. For this to work you must
use the patch for auth_ldap:

cd /auth/ldap

patch <../../enrol/openlml/auth_ldap.patch

The patch adds a cron() method to the auth_ldap plugin that is
executed once an hour.
