I could not find information on the wiki [1] about how
to search for existing LDAP groups [1], does anyone
know how to do that, from either the web or the shell ?
NOTE: I tried using ldapsearch (from both svntrac and ldap
shells) but it always asks me for a password and my osgeo
account password does not work with it.
FYI: i'm hammering ldap with grepping into the output
of ldapsearch -LLL -x -H ldaps://ldap.osgeo.org/
Is effective, althought probably overkill, so I added
a note about that way on the wiki page.
If anyone has better ideas, please update the wiki
or reply here and I'll do. Thanks

What information are you trying to retrieve from LDAP?
Thanks,

I wanted a list of groups, as stated in the first email.
The web interface only allows looking up for _people_
by specifying a (partial) name.

You want to write a new script for the web that does this? I can give
you a copy of some of the existing scripts and install a new one to the
server (or another top admin).

First I'd need to know how to do it.
Second I could write a script for the shell.
Third, someone might want to expose it to the web.
Personally I prefer using the shell for now.
Speaking of which, the wiki mentioned a Web Interface
for LDAP but the link was a 404, I stroked out the mention
but maybe it's something that would already support everything
that's needed to manage an LDAP directory ?
