The mailing list for listmasters using Sympa

[Mark Cheverton <address@concealed>]

Hi,
        Couple of quick questions/feature requests:

        Since we already maintain an LDAP database for all our users and we
want to avoid multiple logins wherever possible I'd like to know if
anyone has code to let wwsympa do its user authentication (ie the
user_table part) against an LDAP database. This would also necesitate
disabling of password updates, user deletetion etc and redirection for
registration which would usually be handled externally by the providers
registration system. I don't think this would be too difficult looking
at the code as the only changes to be made would be to List.pm

        My other question is for comined inclusion of subscriber details from
both sql and ldap. I have serveral SQL tables which I would like to use
as the basis for list addresses (mostly internally) but these don't
store the email address directly but instead store the user LDAP DN (as
above all account details are centralised in one place so that of the
user updates their LDAP email address all systems use that record). Is
there any way to include a combined SQL LDAP search where the results of
the SQL search are LDAP DNs which are then used to find the account
information?
