[Zope] Updated LDAPAdapter product available

[Dr. Ross Lazarus]

If you have a (http://www.csee.uq.edu.au/~leonard/dc-prj/ldapmodule/)
working ldapmodule and a working ldap server, you might be interested in
a revised version of a Zope product called  LDAPAdapter
(http://www.zope.org/Members/rossl/LDAPAdapter) which was hacked from
the IMAPAdapter. It acts like an acl_users folder but allows
authentication from an LDAP server. 

More usefully, it also grabs the names of the groups the user happens to
be in and adds them to the user's roles (plus, LDAP of course) - this
potentially allows you to manage zope roles (and thus access to zope
objects) through your ldap groups.

Seemed like a good idea to me anyway. It's only been lightly tested so
please report bugs or success to rossl@med.usyd.edu.au

Note, this is a bugfix release - users of 0.0.1 are strongly advised to
update due to a security hole which has been plugged....
