I have some followup questions:

1) The documentation suggests that LDAP integration was created
   for the 2.0 release: documentation:archives:rel2.0:ldap
   I assume it still (is supposed to) work with 2.2 ?

2) The user should add its credentials to $ONE_AUTH file 
   (usually $HOME/.one/one_auth) in this fashion:

	user_dn:plain:user_password

   Does that mean the users have to put their passwds 
   in plain text into their homedir ?? This would be 
   a gaping security hole.

Yours,
Steffen
