Comment:

 I have a couple of questions.  Here is what I did.

 • Pulled the diff and applied the patch (patch -p0 auth_ldap.diff) to a
 stock 1.1 django release.  It complained about the docs but then I figured
 out that if I was working off of the trunk it would be there..

 • Read the docs.

 • Now I put this in my global settings.py

 {{{

 AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS = (
     'django.contrib.auth.contrib.ldap.backend.LDAPBackend',
     'django.contrib.auth.backends.ModelBackend',
 )
 AUTH_LDAP_SERVER_URI = "ldap://discovery.smsc.com";
 AUTH_LDAP_USER_DN_TEMPLATE = "cn=%(user)s,o=SMSC,objectclass=person"

 }}}

 Fired up my test server (python2.6 manage.py shell
 --settings=settings_sklass_dev
 --pythonpath=/Users/sklass/perforce//dev/tools/django/smscapps/)

 Now when I login I get an exception:

 {{{
    Error importing authentication backend
 django.contrib.auth.contrib.ldap.backend: "No module named
 contrib.ldap.backend"

 }}}

 It looks like the patch missed a file??
