198458 - ldap to bugzilla account sync script, tested against Exchange (for contrib/)

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Bugzilla :: Bugzilla-General, enhancement)

Description

[Thomas Stromberg]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.4a) Gecko/20030312 Chimera/0.7+

We're only allowed anonymous binds to our Exchange server here, so I wrote a
script 9 months ago that does an anonymous LDAP query for new accounts, and adds
them to Bugzilla with a default password.

Today I went ahead and added the functionality required so that it will also
edit disabledtext for Bugzilla users that no longer exist in the LDAP database.
While I added this feature, I cleaned it up a bit so that some one else in the
same predicament could benefit from my work.

It's so far only been tested against Microsoft Exchange 5.5.

Can you give me a short readme file to go with this, that includes a description
of what it does and who to contact if people have questions?  Once I get that,
I'll stick it in contrib.

I'll check this in later tonight.  I'm not sure I'm going to use your README
patch verbatim...  there appears to be several files missing in the README
anyhow, as well as several of them missing contact information, so I've pulled
CVS logs and will attempt to redo the whole thing anyway at the same time :)

Never got around to redoing the README, so I just took this as-is.  I'll do the
rewrite eventually.
