Buildout, ploneldap and ldap products (2)

In my previous post I described how to get a buildout part to get PloneLDAP with an up-to-date LDAPUserFolder. Things are even simpler now since all involved products have been released as eggs. So just list theses in your buildout along with other eggs:

eggs =
...
Products.LDAPUserFolder
Products.LDAPMultiPlugins
Products.PloneLDAP

Second important thing: LDAPUserFolder 2.9 has been released. If you used 2.9-beta you must upgrade, since an important bug related to the negative cache has been fixed. PloneLDAP documents usage with LDAPUserFolder 2.8, but 2.9 is definitely worth it: The negative cache feature avoids doing too many ldap request, especially useless/unsuccessful ones! Many thanks to Jens Vagelpohl (http://www.dataflake.org/software/ldapuserfolder).
