Apache Sling LDAP Resource Provider

This bundle provides an implementation of the ResourceProvider, allowing
access to entries in an LDAP directory as Sling resources.

Only read-only access is supported.

To configure LDAP access, install this bundle, and head over to
http://localhost:8080/system/console/configMgr
Here you should find Apache Sling LDAP Resource Provider where you can add
LDAP connections.

Note that due to a bug (SLING-2170) in the current release of Sling Explorer, LDAP resources will not
show correctly when using http://localhost:8080/.explorer.html
Instead, to verify that LDAP resources are present, use the JsonRendererServlet by
browsing to http://localhost:8080/ldap.3.json
Alternatively, use the GWT explorer, or an updated Sling Explorer build.
