I use Zope 2.3.2, python 1.5.2 and python_LDAP 1.1 . I want to use loginadapter 1.5 to authenticate the users who try to connect to the portal I build and during all his session I need to know a lot of things about this user. The loginadapter connects itself to the localhost:390 wich is linked by a secure stunnel to the port 389 of another machine which is a OpenLDAP 2.* server. I use the Loginscreen & cookie option of the configure tab and the RDN of the LDAP database is uid. The authentication is made by uid and work perfectly. My first problem is that : Where I can get the LDAP attributs (such mail or another descriptive field of the LDAP database) after the authentication? AUTHENTICATED_USER contains only the uid (AUTHENTICATED_USER.mail for example is not define, even if I specify it in the loginadapter schema). My second problem is that when I do a research with the search tab of the Loginadapter, it doesn't find anything, as if the database would be empty. On the contrary, the research with the search tab of the LDAPUserManager work perfectly.
