#18 LDAP Group Support

[David]

Support for group membership, particularly if it ties to roles, would be the only thing that this plugin needs (imo).

[Andrew Colchagoff]

I have written limited group support, and am currently using the previous version of the ldap plugin on site at Spring Arbor University, I have a group blog creation process, in which a group is searched for, and then an administrator is selected. after the blog is created, users in the appropriate ldap group are added as contributors when they log in. If you would like to look it over you can get exactly what I am using here:

This needs a lot of work, however it would be nice if it provided any help

Echo!

Ive done more work, and moved all my changes over to the current version of the ldap plugin.
newer version can be found here:

Thanks. I'll be taking a closer look at this. It needs to integrate more tightly into the current plugin.

[Andrew Colchagoff]

When I wrote it I wasn't planning on putting it up here, so it is written in a way that keeps it separate, so that when you update, i can easily move changes to the next version. but now it's up here, and it is what it is.

[Andrew Colchagoff]

I wrote a sorted list for group search results, just posting it here for consistency sake
