Re: [Envolution-devel] Auth - was LDAP

[romeo b. .:Envolution.info:. <ci...@en...>]

Ok to set a variable to login, but maybe not in the config but in the=20
database, so admin can change it.
Also we can think to leave administrator always local, so if for example an=
=20
ldap server is down administrator can always login.

For the external services consider that xml-rpm authentication is already=20
working (look at wblogger class)...
