This looks very promising. Marvin, do you have any docs on how ldaptive
manages password policy? A quick google search turned this up:
http://www.ldaptive.org/docs/guide/operations/extended/passwordmodify 

I am interested to see if we can leverage its features to implement a
better LPPE. I am casually working on CAS-1121 [1] and am wondering if I
should hold off on further changes until ldaptive becomes a merge
candidate.

> 
> I wanted to offer a heads up about CAS-ldaptive [1] integration work
that I'm
> pursuing:
> 
> https://github.com/serac/cas-server-integration-ldaptive
> 
> This is still a work in progress, but we will begin testing shortly and
> provided testing goes well we will eventually switch to this library for
LDAP
> integration for our CAS deployment at Virginia Tech.
> A few notable benefits:
> 
>  - First-class support for advanced LDAP features (e.g. esoteric
controls
> including ppolicy, all auth mechanisms)
>  - Robust pooling and error handling
>  - Pluggable LDAP provider mechanism (JNDI, UnboundID, Apache to name a
few)
> 
> It's worth noting that Shibboleth and Grouper use ldaptive (or its
ancestor,
> vt-ldap) for LDAP integration.
> 
> It's my intention to offer this module as a replacement for cas-server-
> support-ldap at some future date. I'll provide a full list of benefits
and
> some performance analysis at that time.
