Optional LDAP Login

[GoogleCodeExporter]

In an business- or educational environment it can be useful to register 
users via LDAP - Authentification (optional, dependent on configvalues), 
so they dont need a new password for each application.

If configured, the optional logic sends a Ldap Call to a configured LDAP - 
Server and authentificates users by that, giving back the same return 
values as the usual login. 
In case of succes, the function will test, whether the user already exists 
local - if not, the email and address data gets imported  into the local 
OM database for referential integrity of the database.

The Dataimport (address and email) happens only once, the 
LdapAuthentification will take place as long as it is configured.

If the admin wants to return to the original authLogic, he just has to 
switch off ldapauth and users are able to authentificate the normal way 
(entered passwd gets written encrypted into local database)
