When I wrote "the administration panel also allows to change users attributes for ldap users" I really wanted to say that I think it's a error to show the password field in a writeable state field...
P.S.: What is happening when a user is removed from the LDAP directory when the user had some ACLs defined in the JahiaDB? Will these ACLs fill over time in the database? I'm still not sure what the impact of coupling Jahia with a LDAP server is. Is the LDAP implementation ready at all for production? Are there any coupled installations out there? What are the main do's and dont's specific to Jahia when coupling to a LDAP directory? Sry to pester you with that much questions, but the manual doesn't really go into detail with LDAP integration...
