Eric, Thanks for replying.
Since my last posting I've been poking around a bit and did notice that LDAPSecurityService is in fact stubbed out. As to your question. I think I have no choice but to make it work for my project, and I'd be happy to contribute. After looking at the code, I'm wondering if this shouldn't be implemented using the om/peer model, but that is meant solely for RDBMS right now (correct? Its a different discussion altogether, but why can't objects be mapped to LDAP as well?). For now I was thinking about simply putting the JNDI calls directly in the LDAPSecurityService. Also, the current implementation won't bind (authenticate) against Netscape Directory Server. I understand the problem, but won't go into it here because it is somewhat long-winded. There will need to be a change or two to the LDAPUserManager as well. Would it be fare to ask for a brain dump from anyone who has thoughts on how this should be done in exchange for building the LDAP interface and submitting? I noticed that Jason van Zyl, Leonard Flournoy, Tracy Adewunmi and Rafal Krzewski were listed as original authors. Are they still around? Is there some original design notes, etc. that might be of use? I know this is a lot to ask, but I'm behind schedule, and I need to get this working ASAP. I'm going to cross-post this to turbine-dev since that is probably where this thread should be anyways.
