I guess I should clarify. It works, but not for all object types. I'm 
guessing the problem you ran into with ldapUserFolder was that Zope 
would eventually give an out of memory error when you tried to add that 
particular type of object. I decided Ape 0.7.1 wouldn't work for me 
since the unit tests wouldn't pass... one of them caused the out of 
memory problem. Some object types worked for me, a few critical ones 
didn't, but I never wrote down exactly which ones. Is the workaround 
posted in the archives anywhere? If so I haven't been able to find it. I 
know Shane has it fixed the problem in cvs, but I was never able to 
figure out a working set of changes to get the unit tests to pass.
