The LDAP connections can now be configured to create user accounts only on demand which means the accounts are created during the first login of the user.

This feature can be used if you need to allow a large base of users to access Check_MK, but only want to have the accounts of users created that really work with it.

Please note that you will only be able to configure the users after their first login. For example the roles / groups of a user can only be configured after account creation.

It can be enabled using the option Create users only on login in the Users options of your LDAP connection.
