The default value for REMOTE_AUTH_AUTO_CREATE_USER (which not defined) is indeed False as the documentation states; see settings.py. I'm open to changing either the default value or its value within the example config given a compelling argument, however the documentation is correct as it stands.

Ah ok. I didn't realize the example config differed from the default settings.py. In that case it was just some confusion on my part and we can close this out.
