How to use LDAP adaptor classes?

[Scott Battaglia]

These resources may help you:

http://www.ja-sig.org/products/cas/server/ldapauthhandler/index.html
http://developer.ja-sig.org/projects/cas/multiproject/cas-server-ldap/apidocs/index.html
http://developer.ja-sig.org/test/cas.html#ldap

Note that they are slightly out of date as they refer to the LdapTemplate
project instead of the Spring LDAP project (we're working on updating
this).  The Spring LDAP Javadocs can be found here:
http://www.springframework.org/ldap
