LDAP authentication

[venkatesh.s@…]

am using account manager plugin for authentication which takes user credentials from a file. now i want to take the credentials from an ldap server. pls suggest me ways to do that. as it is a show stopper for me.

I changed the wiki, and included a small section about installation, I don't know if it will be enough, try to install and let me know what problems do you have

This is the error i find in trac.log when i try to access the trac url after following the steps to install Ldapplugin

this plugin does not depend on ldapplugin, and make sure that you have python-ldap installed
