What is the version of Moodle does this apply
QUESTION: TO WHAT VERSION OF MOODLE DOES THE BULK OF THIS DOCUMENT APPLY? This should be explicitly stated. My guess so far is Moodle 1.6.
For example, the screenshot on this page does not seem to be from a Moodle 1.8 or 1.9 site. Also, in Moodle 1.8/1.9, Authentication is at Admin->Authentication->Manage Auth.
Really useful section, although would be good to explicitly state whether the ldap bind account password is stored securely in the Moodle DB.
What about the sync script?
There is no mention of /auth/ldap/auth_ldap_sync_users.php
Why is it there? What is it for? Should it always be run? Is it obsolete? Is it only for some instances? (As in, specific LDAP settings)
Thanks!
