I use LDAPUserFolder and when I want to assign LocalRoles I get into trouble because users are not display if they never login a first time. I think that when a user make a login it is registered as membership and he can be listed by LocalRoles. So the question is how can I register my LDAP users as membership automaticaly ?
At least, this is not easy. LDAP may manage an huge number of users. The local roles interface is only adequate for a few dozens of users not for thousands or even hundreds of thousands. For this rease, the LDAPUserFolder auther decided to let "getUsers" not return all users but only the ones found in the cache. You may use Plone 1.1's approach to assign local roles. It first lets you search a user and then assign local roles for this user. You find the methods to manage local roles in "AccessControl/Role.py". Dieter
