Alot of the config options have now been removed though you still have to manually enter the full DN of groups etc, I agree that having a browser for this would be very useful, just not sure how to implement

A browser could also be very slow on an AD that has alot of objects.

Perhaps this could be implemented in 4.x.

If we document, setting up the LDAP for 3.x, well enough. people might be content with this until then. ?

The problem we have with AD is that by default you can't list more than 1000 objects in a search and the native PHP ldap doesn't seem to support paging.

The main problem here is implementing the browser as its quite a large piece of work, though given that you've managed to enter the full DN of the admin its probably not a major issue to reenter this for groups (copy/paste), we could always add a validator for the group

A validation of all settings is a good idea..

this could perhaps be added for 3.60 ?
