Automatically Create New JIRA User Accounts

We have JIRA for our faculty/staff at the college I am applications developer for. The JIRA is fine-tuned for them to report issues to maintenance and I.T. We use LDAP for external authentication of user passwords.

Right now, if someone new joins our company, I have to manually add a new user to JIRA. I am wondering if there's a way to create a batch process that checks the LDAP, and if there's a new user, automatically creates a user account on JIRA for them. Has anyone done this before?

What version of JIRA are you using. Version 4.3.x has simplified the user directory configuration quite a bit, including the support for creating a JIRA user at first login

Check out following article http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/JIRA043/Connecting+to+an+LDAP+Directory#ConnectingtoanLDAPDirectory-AddingUserstoGroupsAutomatically
