Grouper Users - Open Discussion List

[Tom Zeller <>]

Versions of ldappc prior to 1.5 have bugs which may be undesirable for you.

Is upgrading Grouper possible ? Upgrading from 1.1 will require
changes to your database. For 1.6, Chris has an Atlassian connector :

Documentation for "old" versions of ldappc are here :

 https://wiki.internet2.edu/confluence/display/i2miCommon/Ldappc

It is probably possible to write an ldappcng plugin for Grouper version 1.1.
