Allows WordPress to authenticate, authorize, create and update users against Active Directory

== Description ==

This Plugin allows WordPress to authenticate, authorize, create and update against an Active Directory Domain.

It is very easy to set up. Just activate the plugin, type in a domain controller, and you're done. But there are more Features:

* authenticate against more than one AD Server
* authorize users by Active Directory group membership
* auto create and update users that can authenticate against AD
* mapping of AD groups to WordPress roles
* use TLS for secure communication to AD Servers (recommended)
* use non standard port for communication to AD Servers
* protection against brute force attacks
* multi-language support (english and german included)

"Active Directory Integration" is based upon Jonathan Marc Bearak's great plugin "Active Directory Authentication" (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/active-directory-authentication/) and Scott Barnett's "adLDAP", a very useful PHP class (http://adldap.sourceforge.net/).
