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
* user and/or admin e-mail notification on failed login attempts
* 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](http://adldap.sourceforge.net/), a very useful PHP class.

= Requirements =

* WordPress since 2.7.1 
* PHP 5
* LDAP support
* OpenSSL Support for TLS (recommended)
