User Sources/Group Mapping

From Joomla! Authentication Tools (JAuthTools)

Group Mapping is a system designed to allow the control of a users permissions within Joomla! to be managed external to Joomla!. The aim is that with group mapping users may be completely managed externally from Joomla! removing the need for an admin to visit the user panel. Whilst external authentication is provided by other means this provides a similar service for groups.
