+- Based on [this plugin](https://github.com/nextcloud/user_external)
+- Install that plugin via web
+- Connect to server, enter nextcloud-docker-image: `docker exec -it nextcloud-aio-nextcloud bash`
+- Adapt `/var/www/html/custom_apps/user_external/lib/BasicAuth.php` to switch from BasicAuth to RowtAuth:

+- In `/var/www/html/config/config.php` add this:

+- In `/var/www/html/config/config.php` add this `'skeletondirectory' => '',` to disable default folders for new users
+- To automatically add users to a group (e.g. `vorstand`), use the `Auto Groups` plugin
+- Shared folders are not shared with new members due to [this bug](https://github.com/nextcloud/server/issues/25062#issuecomment-766445043)
+	- Find DB config: `docker exec nextcloud-aio-database env | grep POSTGRES`
+	- Workaround: Connect to docker-db: `docker exec -it nextcloud-aio-database bash`
+	- Connect to db: `psql -U nextcloud -d nextcloud_database`
+	- (with `\l` you see all dbs)
+	- Connect to nextcloud db: `\c nextcloud_database`
+	- Do query from issue: `UPDATE oc_share SET accepted = 1 WHERE share_type = 1;`
