Hi,
well, what I found out:
- The server does not (yet) have it's own LDAP server. The PHPinfo refers to Ldap functions in PHP
- These functions are needed by ezPublish (says the docu)
- There are several public LDAP servers, which one could use for testing. Most are read-only. Of course, this requires, that you can access the servers on the LDAP port (389 or so).
- From one forum post, i think, that the users in the LDAP-Servers are mapped into one single ez3-user-groups, which renders the thing unusable for me. I thought, one could use groups in the ldap-server.... - From the docu, there is some reference to a cron-job... I fear, that the ldap-users are simply copied to the ez3-user-table. ezCrew, can you enlighen us on my assumptions? (& Enhance the docu)
Björn, are you ironic about the WebDAV? For me, WebDAV is completly useless. Why?
- No versioning
- I didn't manage to upload files larger than about 50 kb with WebDrive. Everybody else seems to love Webdrive. Probably my server config (0-byte-files are created... WebDAV client freezes), but I don't get any progress there
- Dreamweaver MX didn't work either. Got lot's of strange characters in the folder names when browser and I think, i couldn't upload files, either
- I could upload small files, but they don't show up in the ez web interface. So, probably, no file/image object was created. ---> USELESS (for me).
And if the LDAP interface just copies/synchronizes the LDAP users with one (flat) user group, it's pretty much useless for me, too :(
Okay... let's say "currently"... i like, that ez (and 3rd parties) work on things like this (ldap, webdav, pdf, rss) I'll keep you updated, when i spent some more time with LDAP.
