Confluence 2.7 has reached end of life
Check out the [latest version] of the documentation
This Authenticator adds users to confluence-users as they log in. To use it, change the line:
<authenticator class="com.atlassian.confluence.user.ConfluenceAuthenticator"/>
in <Confluence-Install>/confluence/WEB-INF/classes/seraph-config.xml
to:
<authenticator class="com.atlassian.confluence.user.ConfluenceGroupJoiningAuthenticator"/>
If you are using Confluence 2.2 you need to download the ConfluenceGroupJoiningAuthenticator.class file and put it in WEB-INF/classes/com/atlassian/confluence/user.
Confluence 2.3 and later include this class as standard.
From Confluence 2.6, the directory structure WEB-INF/classes/com/atlassian/confluence/user
no longer exists. The files and classes that used to exist here, now reside within the confluence-2.6.0.jar
in WEB-INF/lib
directory.
