The second LDAPLoginAdapter beta, a user folder replacement that authenticates against an LDAP server, has been released. Improvements and bugfixes include: * Refactoring of all LDAP-connection-related code with the advantage of clearer error messages and fewer lines of code. Any inabilities to communicate with the LDAP server are caught right away when the server information is edited in the management screens. * Addition of API documentation accessible through the Zope Help system After bug reports from people who tried to use the LDAPLoginAdapter on pre-2.3.0-versions of Zope the documentation makes it clearer that 2.3.0 or higher is needed to use this product. Some of its features are: * Freely select the LDAP attribute to be used as the user name * Look up user records using the built-in search interface * Written on and for Zope 2.3.0, including the new management interface and copious documentation through the Zope Help System * ...and more You can view some of the documentation and download the software at http://www.dataflake.org/software/ldaploginadapter.
