Dennis,
There is a LDAP client implementation in the Contributed/Goodies. I am
not sure how robust it is. I tried it once about 3 years ago, and
managed to make it work.
As far as Cincom resources - I think that their stock answer probably
would be: "it is not something that our users want/need" ( it is always
fun to poke at the vendor, isn't it )
here is the LDAP licensing:
