I'm using Websphere as application server. I configured the security and LDAP access within Websphere. Also for the applications I configured the group mapping.

Question:
- do I have to configure the same again within JTS advanced properties, or are this values just required for Tomcat installations? Following section in advanced properties does not make sense for me and are double in a Websphere environment.
com.ibm.team.repository.service.jts.internal.userregistry.ldap.LDAPUserRegistryProvider

If they are necessary, why? I like to understand the technique behind the scene.

 Hi Guido

1. Yes; You will have to configure/provide the details of base DN and the rest again in JTS advanced properties or when you run JTS setup.  

2. I believe it's mainly for nightly sync to update and reflect new users in JTS, as in LDAP. If not, there will be a need to manually run repotools -syncUsers

This is correct. I verified this a bit:

To verify the Synch setup, best ist to use the Import User button on the users page in JTS and search for a user. This is using the values in advanced properties.

Logon in Jazz is using the WAS Global Security properties.

The Repository group memberships (the five flags of each user) is using the WAS group setup of the application war files.
