In my project we're actually using a rather older version of the LdapPasswordAuthenticationDao, from before Robert 'reverted' his changes. It requires a few tweaks to compile against current CVS (probably even more since I last synced, actually), but I found it a far more featureful version than what's there now. E.g. it can find the groups for a user when the user's name is stored as an attribute of the group, not just when the group is stored as an attribute of the user. The more featureful version is version 1.6, which you can see here: http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/acegisecurity/acegisecurity/sandbo x/src/main/java/org/acegisecurity/providers/dao/ldap/LdapPasswordAuthent icationDao.java If you're interested I can send my copy of version 1.6 that I hacked up here. It shouldn't require much tweakage to compile against CVS. I think package renames are all that's happened since I got it working.
