  • ensure bind passwords used for the LDAP delegate and the user folder do not get out of sync

  • Fix python-ldap error when receiving sets instead of lists for attributes to search on (Patch by Godefroid Chapelle)

  • When comparing a login value to login values found on the LDAP server strip the login value first. This follows OpenLDAP behavior which considers values as matches even with trailing or leading spaces in the value query filter. (https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1060080)

  • LDAPDelegate: When using a user from the Zope security machinery for the purpose of finding a suitable bind DN and password for connecting to a LDAP server, discard it when it’s not been created as the result of a real login and thus has an invalid password (https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1060112)
