[OT] I would say that LDAP is not that easy to understand at first, I gave up several times before being able to do what I needed ;-) The worst part IMHO is everything that deals with LDAP ACL. However you don't need a deep LDAP knowledge to set up basic LDAP features such as Apache authentication. Nevertheless, I now use a single LDAP server for Trac, SVN, webdav, Jabber, address book (including MUA address auto-completion) and PGP public keys, so adding a new user account to all these services takes half a minute (including the photo ID ;-)). Revoking a user account is even easier. I really would like the Trac IUserDirectory interface to be defined, to provide more LDAP-backed info to Trac. It would then be easy to add the missing UI pieces to manage the LDAP accounts directly through the Trac web interface.
