Really appreciate!
Reading the page you indicate, I tried solution 3 as it seemed to be
the favored one by the author.. I simply added the lines, doing the
import and the setting the flag, in a copy of the active_directory
module.
But maybe you thought of some other nudging?
Some kind of progress anyway, I guess (see below).
Maybe your offer to do your option (3) is worthwhile after all?
