Where can i get some detailed on Stacking / Backing Directories?
I am looking at seeing if i can impliment LDAP groups into CPS but

Start with the CPSLDAPSetup product. It will set up a full LDAP
configuration with CPS. Use the LDIF file in the ldap-utils folder
to set up
a working ldap tree.
How does the current CPSLDAP work? As there is no code i am a little
confused. Where along the line do the > schema's get invoked
instead of
the standard login process? (sorry very new to Zope / CPS)
All the code is in the CPSDirectory product. You will find a schema
that explain the different roles of the meta/backing and stackin
directories
on the CPSLDAPSetup project page at cps-project.org.
CPSLDAPSetup is just a product that create the LDAP objects in a CPS
Site so that it work well. But there is no LDAP code in the
CPSLDAPSetup
product.
Yes. Further information about the CPSDirectory objects can be found
here:
http://www.cps-project.org/sections/documentation/cps-dev-center/
platform-products/cpsdirectory
I must warn that some of it is outdated. The doc on Stacking and Meta
directories is ok.
About the login stuff: all the info is taken by CPSUserFolder from
directories. It isn't extracted from LDAP and then put in directories.
So all you have to do is implement a groups directory that indirects
to your LDAP server. You'll need a stacking to change the id field
from 'dn' (mandatory in LDAP directories) to 'group', and a meta on
top of that to do field renaming if necessary.
