    5152   import it.

     107Read-only LDAP mode 
     108------------------- 
     109 
     110If you want to plug CPS on a readonly LDAP server you should furthermore import 
     111the CPSLDAPSetup "readonly_ldap" extension profile (after having first applied 
     112the CPSLDAPSetup "default" extension profile). 
     113 
     114This extension add a dynamic readonly protection to the fields that are stored 
     115in the LDAP server to make it explicit to users they cannot change those values. 
     116CPS specific fields (groups, roles and homeless) can still get changed (by a 
     117Manager) since they do not require LDAP write access. 
     118 
     119Furthermore, new members created from CPS are stored in the "members_zodb" 
     120backing instead of "members_ldap". 
     121
