Known Issues

• .74.216 is not using ldap authentication for shell access.
• .74.217 is not using ldap authentication for shell access.
• .74.220 is not using ldap authentication for shell access.
• Access to LDAP server needs to be restricted to specific machines somehow?
• We have to create userids on the LDAP server manually, can't be done through plone without a lot of work.
• Plone instance is not using LDAP for authentication.

Service Groups

Currently, shell access is limited to users in the LDAP schema under the "Shell" group. No further group authorization/granularity exists at this time. It is desireable to have "Shell" be broken into groups like "Database", "Subversion Admin", etc to distribute the administration of those tasks.
