The Last Bug
I resolved all the problems except the LDAPConnection test. Testing if a connection is valis looks to be a harder problem than I bagained for and I am still working on a solution.

More Problems
After mentioning the new Zope products. Leigh had some questions and raised some problems that I continue to look into. Joy asked me why some photos had not been uploaded to ldap. I investigated and found the issue was with the photo date. I made some changes to muletrain and wrote a new script that should fix the problem.

Documenting
I wrote the documentation for the LDAPConnection and LDAPSearch products. I started to modify the phone number search script.

Finished
I found the problem with LDAPSearch that was bugging me yesterday. I moved the code to zopedev and was able to resolve the remaining problems.

Forms and Stuff
I spent the day debugging the forms for LDAPConnection and LDAPSearch on battra. There is still one problem with LDAPSearch, it insists on treating connection as an array instead of a scalar.

Twin Time
I split the LDAPSearch product into two parts, LDAPSearch and LDAPConnection. I wrote all the needed new code and got all the tests to pass. Still need to test it under Zope.

The Long Slog
I spent the day debugging LDAPSearch. The basic functionality now works, but I will be changing the interface to make it easier to use.

Zope Product Madness
I was delayed a bit by a problem Dan had. He claimed a user password he changed had been overwritten. I set up a test to monitor this. No changes so far. I tested the LDAPSearch Zope product. Some fixes and I reworked it after thinking how it needs to work in so-called real life.

Time Out
While waiting for the zope ldap issue to be fixed I revised the ldapreport scripts to factor out the ldap command configuration. I wrote a new DSLKit command, update, to support this. I tested the revised scripts and got them to work. I wrote a new ad_config file in anticipation of the switch over and set up the new password file. At the end of the day, Alex reported an updated version of ldap had been installed on zopedev and I verified it works. So I will resme testing the LDAPSearch product tomorrow.
