I'm totally oblivious as to how LDAP works, but I'd give Wichert's
"PloneLDAP" package a go. He has collected everything that's needed in a
single package (well, everything needed on the Plone side โ you still need
to have python-ldap etc installed) โ and there's a control panel. It
should work with Plone 2.5 as well (although created for Plone 3.0).

I'm trying to get basic LDAP auth working. I can get the basic auth part
working. But I have
two problems which are very annoying.
1. After adding any sort of LDAP auth (I tried two styles) the
/plone/acl_users/plugins
object becomes nonfunctional (only Undo/Ownership/Interfaces tabs are
there anymore).
That means I can't control the search order of auth modules anymore, and
I can't
deactive the plugin or select different kinds of LDAP integration
(groups, enumeration etc).
2. After adding LDAP auth, the zope/admin user is no longer recognized
by plone as
an 'admin' user. So I have to define a 'ploneadmin' user, and assign
it manager privs
before adding the LDAP module.
Has anyone seen these issues before? Here are my versions:
zope 2.96 (using ubuntu/debian package on linux)
plone 2.53 (tried package, and then tried download tarball)
LDAPMultiPlugin 1.5
LDAPUserFolder 2.8
GroupUserFolder 3.53.3
One more detail: I have tried using LDAPMultiPlugin, and then I tried
adapting
the GMail Auth module to use LDAP. I got a working Product which
authenticates
against LDAP the way I want, but it ALSO causes the missing 'plugins'
functionality.
This happens even when LDAPMultiPlugin has been deleted.
